Jean Scott Rivenbark, formerly of Rose Hill, NC, passed from her earthly life on May 13, 2025, with daughter Jennifer close by her side. She was a resident of Viewpoint Assisted Living of Colorado Springs (CO) for eighteen months. For about a year prior to that she had lived in Colorado to be near her daughter Jennifer due to health reasons. Born on December 14, 1938, she is the daughter of the late Lucian Osborne and Hazel Adeline Fussell Scott. Also preceding her in death are her husband—Jerry Rivenbark and brother—Harry Scott.

Left to cherish her memory are her sister—Susie Herring; children—Allyson Giordano and husband Greg, Jennifer Carlson and husband Jon, Ann Moore and husband Bill, and John Rivenbark and wife Krysten; stepson—Bob Rivenbark; grandchildren—Kate Drews, Josh Martin, Alex Martin, Ava Rivenbark, Liesl Rivenbark, Samantha Rivenbark, Ana King, Bert Rivenbark, and Aiden Rivenbark; and eight great grandchildren.

Jean was a homemaker during her early to middle life. This gave her the opportunity and time to raise her children to be the people they are today, with high standards and a good work ethic. The Rose Hill Baptist Church was a very important part of her life and the lives of her children in their early years. She loved her Lord and her family was the most important thing on earth to her.

A memorial service will be held later in the year and is set for 1:00 p.m. on October 18, 2025 in the Rose Hill Cemetery, 1008 Fire Tower Road in Rose Hill, NC. 28458.
