Marie H. Spencer, 97, of West Grove, died peacefully on Monday, Oct. 31. She was the wife of Bryan Spencer who died in 2000, and with whom she shared 55 years of marriage.
She was the daughter of the late Mary Kelly and Irving Chambers and was born on May 17, 1925; Marie grew up in Hockessin.
Marie is survived by one daughter, Judy Hoopes and her husband Richard of West Grove; three grandsons, Bryan Hoopes and his wife Gwen, Kevin Hoopes and his wife Lauren, Eric Hoopes and his wife JoAnne; two great-grandchildren Logan Hoopes and Jordon Hoopes, and several nieces and nephews.
Marie was predeceased by 11 brothers and sisters.
She retired as a fabricator from NVF in Kennett Square. She and Bryan loved spending time at their cottage on the Elk River; something she enjoyed up to this year. Through the years she hosted many parties and reunions; was an avid decorator for the seasons and holidays, and her favorite pastime was baking delicious desserts to share with her family and friends. Most importantly she loved her family very much and loved spending time with them.
She was a wonderful mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, and will be deeply missed.
The family would like to thank all her caregivers for their dedicated and loving care over the past year.
