Sue Joyce Eastham

Sue Joyce Eastham of Grandview, Missouri went home to be with Jesus on May 22, 2025 at the age of 85. Sue was known and defined by the way that she loved. She loved her Lord Jesus Christ foremost in her life. This was followed closely by an unconditional love for her family. She had a heart to serve that was a beautiful balance between sitting at the feet of Jesus like Mary and serving people like Martha {Luke 10:38-42}. She brought light to every corner of the world she touched. Those lights still burn today.
