Jacob “Jake” Leamon Rivenbark, age 32, of Wallace left this life way too early on Sunday, December 1, 2024, from Novant New Hanover Regional Hospital.
He was born on January 5, 1992, in Duplin County; the son of Terry Leamon Rivenbark and June Darden Casteen, both of Wallace. Jake was also preceded in death by his paternal grandfather Joseph Rivenbark, maternal grandparents Edward and Jean Darden and his canine companion “Moose”.
Surviving, in addition to his parents, is his son Kaiden Rivenbark of Wallace; fiancé Tessa Casteen of Wallace; sister Tammy Jo Zwettler and husband Al of Illinois; brothers, Joseph Todd Rivenbark and wife Michelle of Potters Hill, NC and Jeffrey Eslie Rivenbark and wife Michelle of Cabin, NC; numerous nieces, nephews and extended family and friends that loved Jake dearly.
Jake was a loving son and a super daddy to Kaiden. He enjoyed simple things, but his greatest joy was his family. With an easy-going personality, Jake loved everyone and enjoyed helping others. He loved hunting, fishing and spending time with Kaiden and Tessa. Jake will surely be missed but treasured memories will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
Graveside funeral service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, December 5, 2024, at Rose Hill Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate any donations made to Quinn-McGowen Funeral Home to help with the funeral expenses for Jake.
