Jeffrey David Eastman

Jeffrey David Eastman died peacefully on October 6, 2026. He was 82. He is survived by his wife, Patricia; siblings William, Michael, and Constance; children, Andrew, Kay, and Rosemary; and grandchildren, Charlotte and David. He was preceded in death by his parents, Leonard and Marion; brother, Richard; and daughter, Allison.

Jeff was an insatiable reader, an excellent chef, and a collector of classical music. Earlier, he was an avid skier and a formidable squash player. Later, he was a doting father and grandfather. In between, he was an entrepreneur and a successful advertising man. He was a graduate of Clayton High School (where he lettered in football and tennis), the University of Wisconsin at Madison (where he fenced), and the St. Louis University School of Law. His greatest pride was his family, past and present.

A private service will be held at New Mt. Sinai Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Barnes-Jewish College Heroes in Training Nursing Scholarship Fund: https://www.foundationbarnesjewish.org/give-nurses.
