Born in Skowhegan, Maine on March 14, 1942, he was the son of the late Norman and Ruby Spooner. In 1963 he married Sharon M. Adams and together they moved to the L/A area and raised two sons. He began his working career hand sewing for Belgrade shoe and later became a shipper/receiver until his early retirement due to illness.
His lifelong passions were spending countless weekends with his family at the family camp on Pushaw Pond and hunting and fishing trips to Bulldog Pond. He was an avid sports Fan dedicated to the Red Sox and the Patriots and countless hours of golf tournaments. During his retirement years he played scrabble, cribbage, word games and computer games, watched western re-runs and of course spent much time with his family.
He is survived by his wife Sharon and his two sons Richard N. Spooner (Denise), Darin S. Spooner and fiancé Heidi L. Kimmick. He also leaves his grandsons, Joshua and Ryan Spooner and Cameron Kimmick. His surviving siblings and their spouses include Carolyn Lagasse, Charlotte Luce (Raymond), Tina Perkins and his sister-in-law Orrinetta Spooner. He will be missed by all his nieces, nephews, and cousins. Besides his parents, he was predeceased by his in-laws Patricia and Richard Adams, two brothers in-law Armand Lagasse and Bruce Perkins and more recently his brother Texton Spooner.
