The little boy stealing his sisters' bunny ears to wear with his cowboy boots and the boy who collected grasshoppers and bottle fed calves grew into such a wonderful young man, taken too soon. As I sit here today, in a Husker shirt to view the funeral, it is all to surreal. A man, so full of life and laughter will be greatly missed. Prayers to the extended Bacon family. I wish I could be there to share in all the stories and memories. Until we meet again Cousin... Now go get into trouble with your Grandpa Sandy! Love you.

You will be truly missed by so many people. You were a harder worker and so helpful. The memories we have will be forever cherished. You lit up every room you walked into, and always had a contagious smile.
You were an amazing father, and now you're their Guardian Angel. Thank you for always being you. Rest in Peace my friend.

Watched him grow running a drill rig for Sargent. Spencer worked on a number of jobs for our company. He was easy to work with and very helpful always. This is tough to see a young man with his skills lost. Knew him only through his work but admired his diligence. As has been said, he will be missed. Condolences to all his family......

He was always such a spark of light when he was in school with Trent and Dani. We have watched him grow up to be such a fine young man. I remember when he thought he wanted to be a priest someday, instead he was one of the best dad's a little girl could have! Hug those little girls close. He will watch over them from up above and be their Gradian Angel. Word cannot express the pain that you feel. Always know we will be here for you. Sincere sympathy. Hugs for all. XXOOXX
