On July 16, 2025, Maurice Spencer Jr.—fondly referred to by friends and family as Big Mo—died quietly in Dallas, Texas. He was born in Lubbock, Texas, on March 24, 1957, and led a life full of love, laughter, and commitment to his family and career.
As a supervisor at Flint Inc., Maurice had a prosperous career that allowed him to influence many lives and win the respect of his coworkers. He was able to relate to everyone he met thanks to his captivating personality, forging relationships in both the personal and professional spheres.
Maurice, a proud Sarah Zumwalt alumnus, was a devoted professional who also had a strong interest in sports and enjoyed supporting the Dallas Cowboys. His passion carried over into other pastimes, such as traveling, fishing, and basketball. Because of his well-known love of food, Maurice loved spending time with his family, frequently sharing tales and eating meals together.
He leaves behind a loving and joyful legacy for his family in the form of his son, Stacy Allen, six grandsons, and one great-grandchild. Along with Patricia, Maurice’s siblings Kathleen, Darrell, Glen, Jessie, Gregory, and Algretia also survive him. Throughout their lifetimes, these family members will uphold his memory and the teachings he taught.
His loyal wife, Maxine Spencer, his mother, Leola Wofford, and his beloved father, Maurice Spencer, all passed away before Maurice. The people he left behind will always carry their memories with them.
