Douglas D. Spence

Doug Spence, 78, passed away December 29, 2025 after a brief illness.  He was born March 4, 1947 in Akron, the son of the late William and Lorna Spence.  Doug will always be remembered as a loyal guy.  "If he was your friend he was your friend for life."  Doug was well known, as he worked as a graphic artist.  If you went to restaurants, especially in the Wooster area, you could find his chalkboard artwork displaying the latest menu specials.   Doug lived in Smithville and was involved with the historical museum.  He was an avid collector of railroad memorabilia and would display much of his collection at Society events.  He will be dearly missed.

In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his brother William Ryan Spence.  Doug is survived by his brother Gary (Deborah) Spence; sister Coreene Lane; numerous nieces and nephews; and special friends Jim (Sue) Fajt, Eric (Karen) Martin, Dan (Connie) Cevasco.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
