Quesinberry, Rickey David

Rickey David Quesinberry, age 71, of Pembroke, Virginia, passed away on October 23, 2026. He was born on September 16, 1955, in Pearisburg, Virginia, and lived a life marked by hard work, devotion to family, and a deep love for the open road.

Rickey was the proud owner and truck driver for New River Transport, where he built his career with dedication, integrity, and a strong work ethic. Truck driving was more than a profession to him. It was his passion and one of the greatest joys of his life. He took pride in his work and found meaning in the independence, responsibility, and purpose that came with it. His love for trucking was well known, and he shared that passion with several members of his family, passing along not only knowledge of the trade but also the values of perseverance and commitment that came with it.

Family was at the center of Rickey’s life. He is survived by his companion, Brenda Lafon; his step-sons, Adam Jones and his wife Marie, and Jeffrey Hunsucker; his step-daughter, Della Graham and her husband Jimmy; and his beloved step-grandchildren, Trey, Andi, Cora, and Daniel. He is also survived by his sister, Jackie Quesinberry; his nephew, Benjamin Lee Vance and his wife Lorrie; and his great-niece and nephew, Emma Vance and Carter Vance. Rickey also leaves behind many extended family members and friends who will cherish his memory and the many ways he touched their lives.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Daniel Ferguson and Mary Quesinberry Hartman; his spouses, Janet Quesinberry and Brenda Quesinberry; and his brothers, Ronald Quesinberry and Michael Quesinberry. Their memories remained an important part of his life, and he carried the love of family with him throughout his years.

Rickey will be remembered as a hardworking man with a kind spirit and a genuine love for what he did. He was the kind of person who found satisfaction in honest labor and took pride in doing things the right way. Those who knew him will remember his steady presence, his devotion to the people he loved, and the joy he found in both his work and his family. His life reflected the values of loyalty, determination, and quiet strength.
