Fred Spooner Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Fred was a World War II Veteran, farmer, lister, hunter, and, like a true Vermont farmer, he could fix just about anything. He knew the best trout holes in Northern Vermont. He shared his thoughts directly, was quick with a joke, and always lived up to his word.
Fred was married to Edna Cote, who pre-deceased him. He is survived by his three children, Gary, Bernard and Carolyn. Many people were lucky to call him Gramp, including grand-children Marrisa & Patrick and his beloved great-grandchildren Michael, Alex, Rowen & Pierson and many "adopted" kids throughout his life. He was Uncle Fred to dozens of nieces and nephews and many who were not related too. Fred was a great friend to many.
Following Fred's wishes, there will be no funeral, but he will be laid to rest with his wife, Edna, at the Post Mills cemetery. Family and friends will gather to remember Fred at a later date.

So sad to read of his passing. Fred was an amazing soul. My family and I lived next to him for some years. We loved talking with him and visiting he was always so happy to have a conversation with us and loved seeing our little guy grow. We did loose touch after moving. Lord rest his soul and deepest sympathy to his family.

I remember Uncle Fred visiting with Gram (June) often while I was also visiting. He always had a smile and kind words for everyone.
