Tommy Eastep, a cherished family man known for his loving and generous spirit he was born on July 2, 1952, in Springhill, TN. Tommy was a bundle of kindness and joy to all who knew him throughout his 71 years.

Raised in the unique environment of an orphanage where his late parents, Jessie Lee Eastep Sr. and Maggie Carene Dugger Eastep, worked, Tommy developed an early sense of community and service. His childhood experiences at the orphanage instilled in him the values of compassion and helpfulness, which he carried with him throughout his life, often seen in his willingness to assist with the transportation of the local Amish community.

Tommy's passion for life was evident in his love for bowling, fishing, riding his 4-wheeler, and softball. These activities were more than hobbies; they were ways for him to connect with friends, share laughter, and create lasting memories. Above all, his greatest joy was the time he spent with his beloved daughter, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren who were the light of his life.

Those who knew Tommy would remember his infectious smile, his warm embrace, and his unwavering kindness. Tommy was one who loved to make jokes and tease everyone who surrounded him. He had a natural ability to make each person he met feel valued and loved. His generosity knew no bounds, and he often went out of his way to help others without expecting anything in return. Tommy was always willing to step in when his family was in need of anything.

Due to a short passing that was very unexpected we are needing help to afford Tommy's final expenses and funeral. Anything that you can afford would be greatly appreciated.
