Khuki Sahu, 90

Posted by on Aug 16, 2019

Mrs. Khauki Sahu of Campbellsville passed peacefully from this life on Tuesday, August 13 at her home. Born in the Saptari District of Nepal on April 2, 1929, she was 90 years, 4 months, and 11 days of age. She was a homemaker and wife of Mr. Bechu Sahu, who preceded her in death.

After the death of her husband at a young age, Mrs. Sahu took the role of caregiver and supporter of their children with pride. Raised in an area known for extreme poverty, she refused to let circumstances control her life, and made sure her children were loved and well cared for. She continually encouraged them to make solid, long-term decisions and always invested strongly in education. After her son earned his Masters Degree in Nepal, she found a way to bring him to the United States to further his studies. Although her health and visa status sometimes forced a physical distance, she still managed to see him earn his PhD and become a full time professor at Campbellsville University. Her love and dedication was the anchor for her family, and the example she set will be cherished for generations.

She leaves to mourn her passing:

One son: Indra Dev Sahu and wife Jita of Campbellsville, Sayani Devi Sahu and husband Shyam of Nepal, and Thakani Devi Sahu of Nepal,

Three local grandchildren: Adarasa Shah, Puspa Shah, and Arpan Shah, and five grandchildren in Nepal,

Local extended family and friends: Laxmi Mandal, Bhabish, Jay Dhurba, and Chandra, and Dr. Steve Alston,

And several other family and friends.

Mrs. Sahu was cremated in accordance with Hindu custom. There was no public visitation.

Kenneth “Kenny” Eastridge, 70

Posted by on Aug 12, 2019

Mr. Kenneth J. “Kenny” Eastridge of Campbellsville passed peacefully from this life on Sunday, August 11, 2019 in Campbellsville. Born in Adair County on August 16, 1948 to the late Calvin and Winnie (Thrasher) Eastridge, he was 70 years, 11 months, and 26 days of age. He had made a profession of faith in Christ and was a member of New Journey Church. He was employed by the Fruit of the Loom plant until its closure; later, he would retire from the Mago Construction Company as a truck driver.

Mr. Eastridge was naturally coordinated and found success in many hobbies. He was a former pilot and bus driver, and enjoyed hunting and playing golf, horseshoes, and bowling. He was the proud father of two girls, and at an early age, loved sharing time in the woods coon hunting with them. He loved laughing with people, especially children, and always carried candy enough to share. His sly but genuine smile and twinkling eyes usually warranted forgiveness each time he was able to slip an Atomic Fireball to an unsuspecting adult.

He leaves to cherish his memory:

His wife: Mrs. Galene (Hinton) Eastridge

Two daughters: Shay Graybeal and husband Wes, and Megan Fields and husband James, all of Campbellsville,

Two sisters: Pam Smith and husband Norman of Campbellsville, and Lois Jean Thompson of Somerset,

Five grandchildren: Gavin Graybeal, Aiden Eastridge, Jalen Embry, Kenneth James Fields, and Shailyn Fields,

Step mother-in-law: Betty Hinton of Campbellsville,

Two brothers-in-law: Jimmy Hinton and wife Sandra of Campbellsville, and Jon Montgomery and wife Cheryl of Greensburg,

And a host of other family and friends.

There will be a funeral service to honor the life of Mr. Eastridge on Wednesday, August 14, 2019 at 11:00 AM in the chapel of the L.R. Petty Funeral Home, 1765 New Columbia Rd, Campbellsville, KY. Bro. Richard Lowe will be officiating. Burial will follow in the Campbellsville Memorial Gardens Cemetery, 3878 Old Greensburg Rd, Campbellsville, KY.

The family will receive friends at the funeral home on Tuesday, August 13, from 5:00-8:00 PM.
