Larry Jonathan Rivera

Larry Jonathan Rivera, aged 35, entered eternal rest on December 8, 2024. Born to the late Larry Provost and Deborah Rivera, Larry was a beloved son, brother, fiancé, and father. He leaves behind his devoted fiancé, Sarah Barnett, and his cherished children, Jayden, Jace and Mia, who will carry forward his legacy of love, warmth, and joy.
Larry was a man of exceptional character, known for his fun-loving nature and the deep affection he held for his family and friends. His brother, Luis Rivera, his dad Ron Rivera, who stepped up and adopted Larry after his parents both passed away, as well as his second mom, Jessica Slayton, were among those who shared in his life's journey, each holding a special place in his heart.
Throughout his life, Larry touched the lives of many with his kindness and generosity. His ability to bring laughter and light to any room was a testament to his vibrant spirit and enduring positivity. Larry's presence was a source of comfort and joy to those who knew him, and his memory will continue to inspire all who were fortunate enough to be part of his life.
Larry's passing leaves a profound void in the hearts of his loved ones, yet his spirit will live on through the memories and stories shared by those who knew him best. As we remember Larry, we celebrate a life filled with love, laughter, and the unyielding bonds of family and friendship.
In honoring Larry's memory, we find solace in the legacy he leaves behind-a testament to a life well-lived and a love that will endure forever. May he rest in peace, forever remembered and cherished by all who knew him.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to support his loving children.
