November 5, 1974 at 12:16 a.m. in St. Louis Missouri, Owen Richard Spencer was born to Richard and Margaret. Owen was to be their 3rd child and first born son. He was a beautiful baby (see below) and a strong personality in the Spencer family. Throughout his life, Owen has carved out his own unique path and has always had a strong testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Owen has been a great blessing to friends due to his ability to accept and love others unconditionally. His example and love has helped his closest friends to return to full fellowship in the church (something that many would not have expected). Owen was a mighty missionary and a talented student as a young man. As a therapist, he has been a powerful and positive influence to those he has served in this capacity. For the past several years, Owen has been a stellar husband to me and a wonderful father to Dylan. I guess the message that I would send to you all today is that I'm eternally grateful for Owen's existence. I can't imagine life without him.
Happy Birthday Owen, we're so glad that you're here!
