Jacob was born on November 28, 1991 in Winchester, Virginia. He is preceded in death by his paternal grandmother, Pearl Short Crowder; his maternal grandfather, Robert Arnold; and his uncle, Lenny Himelright.
Surviving Jacob are his loving parents, James and Linda Crowder; his paternal grandfather, Ashby Crowder; his maternal grandmother, Charlotte Arnold; his brother, Bradley Crowder; his sister-in-law, Jennifer Crowder; and his niece, Willow.
Jacob graduated from Skyline High School in Warren County in 2010 and ECPI with his Associate of Science Degree in Computer and Information Science in the spring of 2013.
Jacob was raised and later became a member of Bennett’s Chapel United Methodist Church. They have always been like a second family to him.
He had a huge heart for others, never knew a stranger, and was a friend to everyone. He strived to help anyone in pain or in need. Even when he struggled the most with his mental health, he always put others first.
Jacob loved to bowl and was an avid gamer. He was such a fun social person to be around and would always give you something to laugh about. He had the best laugh that was super contagious. He will be sorely missed by all those he touched.
In lieu of flowers, please make donations in his memory to either of the following organizations:

To Jacob’s family and friends. I want to extend my sincere sympathy. I didn’t know Jacob real well, but he was a good friend to Carlin and had recently called me also. We had a nice conversation. May you know God’s peace and comfort during this time.
Linda and Jay, Kwang and Harold are so sorry for you loss. We shall never forget Jacob. He was a very interesting and kindly young man. Our interaction with him was delightful and rewarding. His belief of God and Jesus Christ was evident by his faith and devotion. He is now at peace in heaven.
May Jacob Rest In Peace. Sending hugs and prayers for the family during this difficult time. May they find peace and comfort in all the fond memories and lean on God for strength during this difficult time. Our deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathies – Sarah, Brandon and Kiersten Massey
Jay & Linda sooooo sorry to hear of Jacob’s passing
