James Lee Easterling

Jamie Easterling, 23 of Clanton, Alabama went to his heavenly home on January 15, 2024. He was born on November 13, 2000 in Shelby County Hospital.

He was the son of Cindy Jones (Chris Roper) and Lee Easterling (Mindy); Sisters; Brittany Grier of Clanton AL, Naomi Fast (Ron) of Ohio, Lydia Hochstein (Nick) of South Dakota, Martha Easterling of Bibb County, AL and Christina Wilkins (Greg); Brothers, Gerald Easterling of Bibb County, AL, Dalton Roper of Maplesville, AL, Derrick Roper (Bevin) of Maplesville, AL, David Roper (Candace) of Maplesville, AL and Kyle Roper (Monica) of Maplesville, AL; Step Grandmothers, Becky Roper of Maplesville, AL and Dean of Bibb County, AL; and lots of nieces and nephews.

Jamie was a caring, jokester, thoughtful, goodhearted, and a hardworking young man. He loved to draw, dance, ride dirt bikes, go swimming, paint ball, play pool, foosball, fish, ride horses, and cut grass. He loved his friends and had so many. Jamie enjoyed being with family too. He became sick and things he loved so much gradually were taken from him.  God had other plans for him in heaven so he would not suffer any longer.  He had so many family members waiting to rejoice with him when he entered the gates of heaven.

He had his Grandfather and Grandmother, Darvin and Myrtice Edwards and James (Bunk) and Earline Easterling; Step Dad, William Glen Jones; Step Grandfather, Bobby "Roman" Jones; Step Grandfather, Clyde Roper, which he got to meet for the first time as he entered heaven.
