Obituary

Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure.

You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.

David Patrick Spinarski 57, passed away Monday, May 26, 2025, in Albuquerque New Mexico. He was surrounded by his family. David had been courageously fighting liver cancer over the past year; he contracted an infection that he just couldn't beat.

David was born to his parents Wallace and Marilyn Spinarksi on February 14, 1968, in Lancaster, CA. He was the youngest of Wally and Marilyn's five children. It was no coincidence his birthday was Valentines Day, he loved so fiercely and had a humongous heart!

David attended elementary and middle school in Lancaster. Then went on to attend High School in Quartz Hill. As a young child you could find David along with his family at the little league field; it was definitely a family affair. While attending middle school David dabbled in track and field.

David resided in St Louis, MO. and Long Beach, CA. for a while before returning to the Antelope Valley in the early 90's. He met Theresa McClellan in 1992; she would become the one true love of his life. They started dating after becoming friends in May 1994 and later married August 28,1998. David and Theresa had two children Brianna and Devon, they were Davids whole world, he was so proud of them both. David was a huge supporter of Brianna and Devon's extra-curricular activities; you could find him rooting them on from the sidelines and coaching their sports teams in his spare time. David and Theresa went on to separate in divorce after 23 years; in the end they had rekindled their friendship and professed their love for one another.

David started his career with 7-11 Corporation in 1995 managing a store, then he went on to be a district manager overseeing several stores. He left 7-11 in 2018. He then went to work for Circle K as a district manager/store manager where he was employed up until his passing in May.

David enjoyed traveling, he spent many summers taking his family on long vacations making memories and seeking adventure. He enjoyed camping and fishing: he had a sincere love for the outdoors and all its beauty. David also had a love for experimenting with food; he was an excellent cook. You could find David at the Billiards Palace each week where he belonged to a team and fulfilled his love for pool. Davids biggest love though, next to his family of course, was his football team- The 49er's . He was a very loyal and devoted fan who didn't miss a game, not intentionally anyways. Even while fighting in his last days, he talked about his team and how they were going to win this year!!!

David leaves behind his daughter Brianna (Dee), his son Devon, his soul mate Theresa and his four siblings, Susan Leadley (John), Scott Spinarski (Jodi), Karen Haight (Steve) and Cassie Anderson all of whom he loved immensely. He also leaves behind 13 nieces and nephews and 20 great nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his parents, Wally 2003 and Marilyn 2024. The family will have a private service to mourn and remember their beloved father, brother, uncle and friend. He will be truly missed by those who knew him.
