Calvin Benjamin Spencer
September 10, 1987 — January 27, 2018
Calvin Benjamin Spencer, 30, was born on September 10, 1987 in Lubbock, Texas to William and Alma Spencer and entered into eternal rest on January 27, 2018 in Downey, California.
Calvin was greeted at Heaven's gate by his loving father, William Spencer, who preceded him in death.
With hard working hands, Calvin was co-founder of Bastard’s American Canteen in Downtown Downey for over 6 years and was a veteran of the United States Marine Corp, earning an honorable discharge for his years bravely fighting for our freedom. Calvin was always full of life, his contagious smile and heart made of gold gravitated people towards him. He left a memorable imprint on his family, the Veteran community, his hometown & the lucky ones who had the pleasure and honor of having him in their lives.
Calvin leaves behind his loving family: Mother, Alma Spencer of Downey, California, Brother, William Allen Spencer of Downey, California, Sister, Victoria Aniceto of Bellflower, California, Grandmother, Rosa Herrera of Burbank, California, Grandfather, Armando Sandoval of Downey, California, Aunt, Rosie Davis of Downey, California, Uncle, Axel Sandoval of Downey, California, Uncle, Marcus Sandoval of Downey, California, Uncle, Sergio Sazo of Burbank, California, as well as several other family members and friends who loved Calvin and will miss him dearly.
