Obituary

We are saddened to announce the passing of Suzanne (Sue) Bailey Spangler, a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend, who passed away peacefully at the age of 91.

Born in Los Angeles, CA, on March 7, 1934, Sue was a proud Stanford alumna with a spirit of adventure. She loved traveling the world with her husband, Martin J. Spangler, (including their adventures in the Air Force as newlyweds) and also with her sisters. She was a strong supporter of her family traveling the world too. Sue and Marty, were longtime owners of the family business, Spangler Mortuaries, serving their community with compassion and care. Married for 70 years, they built a life rooted in love and service.

A woman of deep Christian faith, Sue found joy in studying the Bible and sharing its teachings. She was actively involved in her Bible Study and always offered a listening ear, a kind word, or a prayer. Her home was a place of warmth and welcome, filled with laughter, love, and family. She was an avid game player - Bridge and Mahjong being favorites, and she spent hours on end with dear friends and family, playing various card games. She was a life-long learner who had more books than could ever be counted.

Family was the most important thing to Sue. The time that she invested with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren will be cherished forever. She is survived by her husband, Martin J. Spangler (Marty); her sisters, Linda Keene and Joan Hobin; three of her four children, Jim (Jane) Spangler, Linda (Tom) Cave, and Kristen (Charles) Bauer; 14 beloved grandchildren: Jake, Nick, Chris, Samantha, Starr, Kelly, Steven, Joyah, Jenni, Chloe, Isaiah, Ian, Annalee, and Benaiah. She is also survived by 13 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her son, Scott Spangler, with whom she is now reunited.

A service to celebrate her life will be held at the Los Altos Chapel of Spangler Mortuaries on Friday, August 15, 2025 at 10am, followed by a reception at the Los Altos Country Club.

Suzanne Bailey Spangler leaves behind a legacy of family, faith, and love. She will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed by her family and community.
