Steven Wayne Pearman
Steven Wayne Pearman, 66, of Buncombe, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Sunday, Feb. 2.
He was born April 17, 1958 in Cairo, the son of Raleigh F. and Kathleen (Rivers) Pearman. He married Tammy Morgan in 1991.
Steven is survived by his wife, Tammy Pearman of Buncombe; daughters, April Pearman (Robert Smith) of Anna, Andrea (Ron) Kosydor of Alto Pass, and Jane (Andrew) Inman of Anna; grandchildren, Taylor (Joseph) Goins of Ullin, Zachary Kosydor of Alto Pass, and Evan Inman of Anna; great-grandchildren, Bryson, Aubrey, and Brexton Goins; brother, Stanley (Nita) Pearman of Meridian, MS; sister, Cindy (Rick) Flamm of Lake of Egypt; numerous loved nieces and nephews; sisters in law, Cindy (Anthony) Edwards of Anna, Shari (Tim) Spurlock of Buncombe and Tricia Morgan of Buncombe; other relatives, and many friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
Steven was a member of the First Pentecostal Church in Goreville. He was a man of great faith and loved his Lord and Savior.
He loved his family beyond measure; spending time with his grandchildren, nieces and nephew was always the highlight of his day. Whether it was giving them rides on the tractor, letting them drive the old pick up in the pasture, playing games or just having a good laugh, he loved time with his family.
Steven was a hardworking man, farming and ranching in his early years and later he drove a truck. Work kept him busy most days but in his spare time, he enjoyed tinkering with the tractor, going fishing, or hiking in the woods with his grandchildren.
His fun-loving nature and sense of humor made for great storytelling when there was an ear to listen.
