Stockbridge – We have just received word that Jack Spencer, who for 45 years taught history at the Plain School in Stockbridge and at Monument Mountain Regional High School, died early Sunday morning, February 19, at home, with his daughters Kathy and Ann Marie by his side.
News of his death came from Jack’s sisters, Judy Burbank and Cyndie Spencer.
“We are grateful that in these last few months he was able to enjoy time with his family and friends and, dare we say, fans who reached out to him from near and far in so many ways which warmed his heart and ours. We are having a difficult time imagining a world without regular doses of Jack’s humor and wisdom but we take solace in knowing that he knew he was well loved,” they wrote in a communiqué.
A Ceremony of Celebration will be held Saturday, February 25th at 1 p.m. at Monument Mountain Regional High School in Great Barrington. The family will receive friends following the ceremony at The Stockbridge Library.
A full obituary will follow shortly.
