Eulah M. (Wisehart) Payne, daughter of W. H. and Ora (Harbison) Wisehart was born in Myrtle, Missouri on May 10, 1923.
God called her Home to Himself on September 29, 2019, while residing in West Vue Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in West Plains, Missouri.
Eulah made the most important decision of her life, her profession of faith in Jesus Christ as her Savior, when she was a young girl.
On August 19, 1948, Eulah was united in marriage with the one man who won her heart, Robert D. Payne (Bob). To their happy union two daughters, Patricia (Barger) and Marsha (Harter), and two sons, Kenton and David were born.
Bob preceded Eulah in death April 1989. Eulah was also preceded in death by her parents; three sisters, Eunice, Marie (Sutton), and Bernice (Cantrell); one son, David; one grandson, Daniel Mark Barger, and one great grandson, Jeremy McConville.
Eulah leaves to celebrate her memory, Pat and Don Barger of El Dorado Springs, Missouri; Marsha and Jim Harter of Nashville, Tennessee, and Kent and Ava Payne of Lees Summit, Missouri; seven grandchildren, Tricia Patrick, Steve Barger, Jennifer Ervin, Jamie Waters, Jeff Harter, Jessica Harter, and Lucas Payne, and ten great grandchildren.
Eulah was a long-time active member of First Freewill Baptist Church, West Plains. She served as a volunteer at the Ozarks Medical Center Hospital and the hospital thrift shop for over twenty-five years. Eulah loved the Lord, her family, and her church and will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her because our lives are better for having known her.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Gideon’s and can be left at the funeral home.

A beautiful lady. She loved God and showed His love to those she loved. I’m thankful she was part of my son-in-law, daughter, and granddaughter life.
Love and Prayers for those she loved

I’m so thankful to have known Eulah. She was such an inspiration to me. Was always willing to give an encouraging word. She loved working in WNAC in the church, singing in the choir or doing whatever was needed. I so happy her eyes have been restored and she is enjoying the beauties of Heaven.

Eulah was my favorite volunteer. I like to think I was one of her favorites as well. She could always bring a smile to my face just by walking in the door. Bless your family, may your memories bring you comfort. Imagine that reunion in Heaven and may that image bring a smile to your face and peace to your heart.

No more tears, pain or sorrow Eulah, just an eternity of rejoicing in Heaven.
