Kenneth Spaulding Obituary

Spaulding, Kenneth W.
was blessed to go live with his Heavenly Father on 2-06-13. He peacefully passed away at home while with his loving wife of 63 years, Omia Fay Spaulding. Together they had created a wonderful family. He is survived by his wife, son Keith Spaulding and daughters Diana Cramp, Patsy Baker and Debbie Spaulding along with 9 grandchildren, 13 great grandchildren, his 2 brothers and 1 sister. His "hard work" ethic was rewarded with retirement from Magma Copper Mine and Mesa Public Schools. He was a man of few words but full of knowledge and expertise in farming, horses, building barns & fences, and witty sayings. He will always be cherished and remembered by his family and many friends. Funeral services are Tuesday, Feb. 12, 2013 at 12 noon, preceded by a visitation at 11 AM at Victory Tabernacle, 339 S. Lindsay Rd. in Gilbert. Arrangements by Bunker's Garden Chapel.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I am sorry to hear about Uncle Kenneth's passing. I remember a time when I was a child and your family visited mine. Kenneth commented he was 42 and hoped to live another 42 years. I thought it was amazing that he could think of himself at 84. Bless him, he almost made it. He also had the most memorable laugh. My thoughts are with all of you during this time.
