- OBIT:
Justine Page Stidmon, 17, of French Village, MO, passed away March 22, 2013, at St. Anthony's Medical Center in St. Louis, MO. She was born on May 9, 1995, in Farmington, MO. She attended Bloomsdale Elementary, Ste. Genevieve Junior High and South Iron High School. Justine spent time growing up in Poplar Bluff, Piedmont, Goose Creek, Des Arc, Annapolis and French Village. She loved listening to music, writing poems and lyrics, spending time with family and friends, Facebooking, watching the TV show "Once Upon a Time," and drawing.
Her family remembers that Justine never forgot anything. She knew everyone's birthday and would warn people not to promise her something because she wouldn't forget it. She was a whiz on computers and was a self- proclaimed diva and drama queen who loved to sing. Her favorite foods were pickles, olives, lemons and Oreos. Justine was a member of Goose Creek Baptist Church.
She was baptized by Pastor Ed Despain on September 30, 2007. Justine had Jesus in her heart, loved her church family and was known for her giving heart and eagerness to help others. She talked of one day leading a choir or having a band. She now has the best ones in Heaven.
Justine is survived by her parents, Scott Stidmon of Arnold, MO, and Rebecca and Mike Pinkley of French Village, MO; her grandparents, Larry and Sue Tucker of Des Arc, MO, Bob and Geraldine Sanders of Piedmont, MO, and Bruce Sanders and his girlfriend, Laura, of Piedmont, MO; Sandy and Robert Phelps of Annapolis, MO, Mabel Clark of Piedmont, MO, Charlie and Linda Pinkley of French Village, MO, and Anna Martin of Ste. Genevieve, MO; two brothers, Larin Burchard of Greenville, MO, Logan Stidmon of Greenville, MO; one sister, Danielle Pinkley of French Village, MO; and her fiancé, Steven Craig of De Soto, MO.
