502 Bill Spang passed away on June 5, 2010 while rafting the Eagle River. He was 48.

Born in Newton, Mass. to David and Gwen Spang, Bill grew up in Sudbury, Mass. and spent childhood summers on Cape Cod. After graduating from Lincoln-Sudbury High School, Bill started his carpentry career and worked his way up to becoming a master carpenter. He eventually started his own construction business in Massachusetts, which he continued after relocating to Colorado.

Bill moved to Aspen in 1994, and it was there that he met his wife Silke, in 1997. He and Silke were married in 2001, and their daughter, Kristen was born in 2002. Bill was a devoted and faithful husband to Silke, who was the love of his life. He was a doting father to Kristen, a caring stepfather to Gregory and Katrina, a loving son, and an awesome brother. He was a great friend to all those who knew him, and his passing leaves a gaping hole in the lives of many. He touched so many hearts and will be sorely missed.

Bill had a great passion for the outdoors. He loved skiing, which he began at a young age competing in the Buddy Werner program in Sudbury, Mass. He spent many years skiing with his family at Sugarloaf, Maine and after moving out West, couldn't wait to introduce his daughter to the sport. He proved to be a great instructor and was so proud when he recently announced that Kristen could out-ski him.

Bill enjoyed fishing and boating with his family during his annual visits to his parents' home on Cape Cod. He and Kristen shared activities such as biking, hiking, camping, fishing, catching snakes and lizards, and their monthly ?date? at McDonald's.

Bill also was a good mechanic and loved working on his ?85 Bronco, which he completely rebuilt, not once, but several times, and frequently took out four-wheeling to explore the Aspen area. He shared this love of cars with his stepson Greg and the two of them spent many hours fixing Greg's truck, as well. A recent rescue mission pulling Greg's truck out of a pond with the Bronco will be an enduring memory.

Bill and his stepdaughter Katrina enjoyed snowmobiling in the winter, watching sitcoms, teasing each other, and most recently doing crossword puzzles on the computer together.

Bill was a great storyteller and had a wonderful sense of humor. He loved tinkering in his garage and always had a project of some sort going. If you needed his help, it was only a knock on the door or a phone call away. He was a man of honesty and integrity with a strong work ethic. But more than anything, Bill will be remembered as having lived life to the fullest, enjoying every minute of it.

Bill is survived by his wife, Silke; daughter Kristen of Aspen; parents David and Gwen Spang of Truro, Mass.; sisters Deborah Dionne of Provincetown, Mass., Lynda Johnson of Brookline, N.H. and Tracy (John) Wertis of Trumansburg, N.Y.; stepson and stepdaughter Gregory and Katrina Buesch of Aspen; and nieces Christy, Caitlyn, Amanda, Sandra, Gail and Sarah.

There will be a celebration of Bill's life on June 19 beginning at 4 p.m. at the T-Lazy-Seven Ranch Chuckwagon Grounds, followed by a barbecue potluck dinner.

Guests are asked to bring a side dish or drinks. For any questions, please e-mail Rebecca at rebecca@sopris.net or call Chris at 970-920-9146.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Bill Spang Memorial Fund at American National Bank in Aspen, 970-544-3777.

GEORGE H. SPANG (deceased). In the death of George H. Spang,
on September 21, 1901. the city of Lebanon lost one of her most substantial,
influential and highlv valued citizens.

George H. Spang was born January 8, 1844, in North Lebanon township,
Lebanon county, son of George A. and Leah (Fisher) Spang, the
former of whom was a son of Michael Spang. For many years Michael
Spang kept the "Spang Hotel," which still stands on the Berks and Dauphin
turnpike road, north of the lane leading to the Lebanon County Almshouse.
The mother of Mr. Spang was a daughter of Joseph Fisher, who lived on the
farm which is now the site of the Almshouse.
The late George H. Spang acquired his education in the common schools,
and then, in 1855, came to Lebanon and learned the carpenter's trade. In
the early days of the Civil War, on September 23, 1862, Mr. Spang offered
his services to his country, enlisting in a company recruited in Lebanon,
under Captain Rank, this being attached to the One Hundred and Fifty-second
Pennsylvania Volunteers, and known as the Third Artillery. This battery
was stationed at Baltimore until the battle of Gettysburg, in July, 1863, when
it was moved to Mount Airy, thence to Gettysburg, where it was heavily
engaged on the right wing of the Union forces, the spot now being commemorated
by a handsome monument. Mr. Spang served as quartermastersergeant
of his company, and was mustered out by special order June 16,
1865.
Few artillerymen in the Union army became as expert in range-finding
as Mr. Spang, and his remarkable work in this line elicited the commendati()n
of his officers and the admiration of his comrades. At Gettysburg he was in
the thickest of the fray, having charge of two field pieces, and it was these
guns which did such deadly work, when Pickett made his famous charge, on
account of the accuracy with which artilleryman Spang found the range.
To recall a bit of that day of carnage, during which Mr. Spang was particularly
conspicuous, when Pickett's line approached, the officer who had charge
of the artillery had some trouble in getting results from his guns, owing to
faulty range, and in this emergency Mr. Spang was called upon to gauge the
distance, doing so almost instantly, placing it fully 200 yards nearer than any
other estimate, striking the line of the adversary in the middle.
In 1868 Mr. Spang became a partner with John H. Bressler in the
hardware business in Lebanon, and proved as successful a merchant as he
was faithful as a soldier. All progressive movements in Lebanon received
support from Mr. Spang according to their merits. From the beginning he
was active in founding and building up the fire department, and in August,
1865, became a member of Union Fire Company, No. i, and it was through
his untiring eff'orts that the present efficient steam engine was purchased.
Mr. Spang was the first chief engineer of the department, being elected as such at the reorganization of the department in 1873, three delegates from
each company joining in convention, lie being a delegate from the L'nion
company. His first appointment was for a period of three months, but later
he was elected for a term of two years. For over thirty years he acted as
president of the Union Fire Company, holding that position at the time of
his death.
In political activity Mr. Spang took a keen delight, faithfully serving the
Democratic party and stanchly upholding its principles. Influential in its
ranks, he was profifered many testimonials of esteem and confidence. In 1876
he was a delegate to the National Democratic convention, and supported
Samuel J. Tilden for president. In 1880 he was again a delegate and gave
his support to that brave soldier and courtly gentleman. Gen. Winfield Scott
Hancock. In local matters he was zealous in support of his party, and was
true to his political friends. When Dr. Gloninger was a candidate for
Congress, he received the assistance of Mr. Spang, who served as president
of the organization known as the "Boys in Blue." In 1883 he was elected county commissioner of Lebanon county, a wise and satisfactory choice
which his administration proved, and at the end of his first term, he was
re-elected. Many needed reforms were inaugurated and one of the most
important improvements in the county was brought about, the remodeling
of the county almshouse and the erection of a hospital at that institution.
During his term of office the annex to the court house and the new county
jail were erected.
In fact, to recount the public services of Mr. Spang is to recall the leading
events in the city's career. Although the city was Republican, his personal
attributes were so highly esteemed that he was elected city treasurer in 1893.
In 1896 his election took place as the first president of the Fireman's Relief
Association, for a term of four years, and in 1898 he was deemed the most
suitable citizen to become president of the Fireman's committee to make
arrangements for the State Firemen's convention, which was held in Lebanon
in October of that year. In 1900 he was the unanimous choice of his Democratic
friends for the State Senate, and received a very large vote. For
years he served as treasurer of the Democratic city committee. Mr. Spang
was one of the organizers of the Lebanon ^Manufacturing Company, of which
corporation he was treasurer and a director. Fisher Hall, well known to old
residents of Lebanon, was built by Peter Fisher, and ]Mr. Spang became first
its manager and then its owner, and in 1898 lie remodeled it and renamed the
building the Academy of ]\Iusic. In fraternal life he was a Knight Templar Mason, and also belonged to the Odd T'ellows, the L'nited Workmen and the
Lebanon Clnb, the latter a pnrely social organization.
Mr. Spang was married to Miss Emma L. Focht, danghter of William
Focht, deceased, and three children were born to this nnion, namely: George
T., Amelia E. and Margnerite L.

Mathias Spang, a prominent and enterprising farmer, on section 11, Genesee Township, was born April 1, 1837, Prussia. John Spang, his father, was of the same nativity, and was a stone cutter. He died in 1843, at 45 years of age. He had been twice married, and was the father of three sons and a daughter by his first wife: John is a stone-cutter in the land of his birth; Peter is an officer in the French Army, and resides at Paris, France; William is a farmer in Racine Co., Wis.; the daughter is married, and lives in Cincinnati, Ohio. The senior Spang was married about two years after the death of his first wife, to Lucy Mergan, daughter of a German farmer. She had become the mother of three children when she became a widow. Anthony, her second child, is a farmer in the Province of Ontario, Canada; Margaret lives in Ontario.

Mr. Spang is the oldest of the children born of the second marriage. The three little ones were such in very fact, and the mother managed to keep her little flock together until her son was old enough to maintain the family. He had learned the trade of molder, and followed it as a business until he was 20 years of age, when he became liable to the conscription. To avoid being drafted into the German army, he came with is mother, brother and sister, to America. They landed at Quebec, and proceeded at once to Toronto, where Mr. Spang obtained employment as molder. He had testimonials from his employers in is native land, of whom he acquired a knowledge of his business and with whom he remained until he left Germany. The evidence of his qualifications procured him a situation, which he filled until his marriage.

He entered into a matrimonial alliance with Mary Morden, Jan. 8, 1865. Mrs. Spang is the daughter of Jacob and Lydia (White) Morden, and was born June 1, 1848. Her parents were farmers in the Province of Ontario, and still reside in the Dominion. Their family included four sons and five daughters, Mrs. S. being the oldest of the latter. She was reared to womanhood in her native province, and is the mother of nine children, born as follows: Lucy, Oct. 25, 1867; John, Nov. 17, 1869; Anthony, Aug. 7, 1871; Mathias, June 27, 1873; Lydia, June 7, 1876; Mary, Nov. 19, 1878; Anna, March 19, 1880; Lucinda, Oct. 25, 1881; William, Sept. 27, 1883. The oldest child was born in Ontario Co., Canada.

The family came in 1868 to Chicago, where they remained through the winter. They were three individuals - father, mother and an infant child. In the spring ensuing they came to Whiteside County, and purchased 50 acres of land in Genesee Township, near Coleta. This was the beginning of the career of Mr. Spang as a farmer under the fostering influences of a republican government. He has increased his estate to 98 acres in extent, and made creditable and valuable improvements.

Among the people of his own nationality he is in a sense a leader, ever holding himself in readiness to give counsel and general information as he may be qualified to do, and for which he has frequent applications. He is a Democrat in his political views, and actively interested in the progress of the party in local avenues. In religious belief he is a Catholic. His wife was brought up under the tenets of the Methodist Church. The mother of Mr. Spang died at her home in Ontario, Canada, aged 84 tears and five months.

Mike Hopkins, one of the pioneers of St. Croix County, and well known farmer, died at his home in the town of Richmond, Sunday as a result of a stroke on Wednesday night. Funeral was held at Immaculate Conception yesterday morning and was one of the largest in the history of the congregation. Multitudes from the towns formed a procession that escorted the remains to their last resting place, and many from the city paid a last tribute to an old and cherished friend.

Mr. Hopkins was in the city a week ago and appeared to be in usual good health and jovial spirits. He visited with the writer as was his custom about every time he came to town and greeted many old time friends. That night he suffered a stroke and never rallied from the effects.

Mr. Hopkins was born in Ireland 64 years ago. He came to this country when a young man, and about 40 years ago was steamboating at Hudson.

34 years ago he married Mary Hennessey of Erin Prairie who survives him with a family of children. Mike lived in Erin Prairie with his father and mother for a number of years, but about the time of his marriage he moved to a farm in Richmond. He has a brother John and Mrs. James Neary of Erin Prairie and Mrs. Larry Garrity of Minneapolis are sisters.
