Born in Nederland, Texas, on July 26, 1989, he was the son of Rick Dearing and Marla (Chandler) Dearing. Jake graduated from Bridge City High School Class of 2007. He served bravely in the United States Army for four years. He was an all-around wonderful family man, taking great pride in his children and always making the best of every situation at hand. Jake could often be found fishing, hunting, riding ATV’s, boating, and enjoying the outdoors. His smile could capture a room, and he was always the life of any party he entered, never meeting a stranger. Jake enjoyed life to the max and never took a second for granted. He loved spending time with his children and took great joy in seeing them grow. If it was broke, Jake could fix it. He was endlessly generous, giving all and more than he had to anyone who needed it. He enjoyed a good steak and a full crawfish boil. In his life cut too short, Jake made an impact on everyone he met and will be deeply missed and remembered in the hearts of all those who loved him.

He is preceded in death by his grandfather, Wendell Chandler.

He is survived by his parents, Rick and Marla Dearing; loving wife of three years, Lauren Dearing; children, Carson Moore, Emma Dearing, and Connor Dearing; grandparents, Gary and Darlene Dearing, Cecil and Lyndell Hodgkinson, and Lynette Chandler; great-grandparents, Carl and Marcell Dearing; siblings, Derick Dearing, and Carlee Dearing; aunt, Rhonda Lejeune; uncle, Randy Chandler; uncle, Matt Chandler and wife Brittney; uncle, Brent Dearing and wife Dana; uncle, Clint Hodgkinson and wife Kandis; & uncle, Philip Hodgkinson and wife Angela; along with numerous other beloved cousins, loving family and friends.
