Darren Glen Spoering

Darren was born in Aurora MO where he spent his youngest years playing on his uncle Jerry and aunt Esthers farm. He spent time with his grandparents, aunts and uncles, playing with cousins and his younger brothers. At the age of 13 his family moved to Colorado, soon settling in the small town of Firestone.  

Darren graduated from Frederick Jr/Sr High school in 1989. While attending school Darren met and married his high school sweetheart Pamela Ann Ray. Darren joined the Army and completed boot camp between his junior and senior year of school, he deployed to Kuwait in January 1991 and served in Desert Storm with the 220th Military Police.  Darren proudly served his country, and was honorably discharged in 1993.  

Once discharged from the service Darren and Pam settled back in Firestone where they raised their three children; Glen (Ashley) Spoering, Jennifer (Drew) Gettel, and Amber Spoering. Darren worked in several different fields before settling into construction, until a stroke forced him to retire early. Darren kept busy following retirement with his hobbies, and spending time with his favorite family members, 4 grandsons and a granddaughter. 

Darren is survived by his wife Pam, his three children, 5 grandchildren, mother Parila, stepfather Gary, brothers Bryan and Jamie. He is preceded in death by his father Eugene and brother Erin. 

Darrens devotion to family and love of his country never faded. He was a strong supporter of our country and never wavered in his love of family and friends.
