Spencer Reed Albans, age 42, passed away on August 3, 2017 after a car accident caused by a medical emergency. Spencer was born in Bellingham, WA on September 29, 1974 to Gary and Myong Suk Albans. Spencer graduated from Bellingham High School in 1992. While in high school he worked at Boomers Drive In. After graduating Spencer served in the United States Marines.

Most recently, Spencer worked for Fed Ex and was finishing his degree at WCC.
Spencer enjoyed traveling in the US, Canada, Korea and Japan. A love of travel may have begun on a trip to Florida when he was 6 years old. His family still remembers the smile on his face that entire trip.
Spencer enjoyed camping trips and hikes with family and friends along with off roading in his pickup truck. Spencer was a collector. He collected figurines of all kinds, books, and recipes. Spencer also liked to cook, but only when he was getting paid for it. His family will always cherish the time they spent with Spencer, even as they remember his perpetually messy room.

I only had the privilege to work with Spencer for 2 years but we worked side by side every day and he was a truly wonderful person. He was funny and witty. He always had a smart comeback for anything you tried to through at him. He was one of the hardest workers I’ve ever seen and I’ll still remember the few arguments with him trying to get him to take a rest when his blood sugar was low. He never wanted to stop. He would always come into work at FedEx after getting 2 hours of sleep after his other job and school. He was a good friend and ill miss him alot. I hope now he can finally rest and catch up inn all that sleep he was missing out on.
