I’m so sad Spence, that you spent your last days alone. I know that you’re now in a much better place, comforted, and not hurting. I know you and Mack are probably up there roping together right now and that thought warms my heart, but you’ll be missed. I hate that we all sort of lost touch over the years but I’ll always remember growing up with my cousins. You 3 were like my big brothers down the road. We were always together for birthdays and big Christmas’s and I remember living in your old house while ours was being remodeled. I was real little but I remember you showing me how to rope hay bales in the shop and taking me to ride in the pasture. I always looked up to you 3 and wanted to be cool just like you! So all you boys are special to me no matter how distant we have become as adults.Love you all and I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m also sorry that this virus is keeping us from being there for you, but please know we’re all thinking about and praying for you Tami, Rhonda, Clay and Trey.

Spence I've put off writing anything but I guess I better. I was told one time that you could count your true friends on one hand and subtract 2. Well amigo you definitely made the top 3 and it's hard to put my 3 best friends in order cause it's too hard. Your heart is what kept people coming back. Man we traveled this country didnt we. The trips in the truck out to Florida, going to the stones in Vegas, new years in salt lake...all the back roads and highways you and I traveled and the stories that we can and cant tell. ?. I've never known anyone like you bud. I always new ol Pence had my back. You never once wasent there for me. I cant beleive that I'm not gonna hear.."damnit Awol..what did you do" again. I can still hear it in my head. We had our disagreements and ups and downs but I never had a brother but I found one in you and you never treated me like anything but. I could go on and on but I wont brother Spencer...I'm just gonna say this, I love you my friend, brother, and road dog. Next to my mom and grandads, so far loosing you in the physical aspect has been the hardest for me. What I hang my hat on is the fact that when I finally get to leave this earth and join you all up in heaven I know in my heart that you will be one of the ones standing there waiting for me to join yall and tell windies from then till the end of time. I love you Bud and I'm really going to miss you. I wish we had just one more day to discuss the ways of the world and watch one more movie together or one more Bob Dylan concert. Go rest high my friend and I'll see you sooner than later. Happy Trails Catfish

Spence, you have been a sweet friend, very supportive of me when I was in Nursing school, you were such a sport letting me learn vital signs and shaving you when you only had 11 whiskers. What a funny guy you could be. So supportive of your mother and always there for her. See you again rest in peace.

My condolences to the family. I grew up around Spence and his brothers. I’m saddened to hear of this. I last talked to Spence years ago at a gas station in Lovington, NM. He was of course laughing and telling me a story. Spence, you are missed.
