    Her obituary appeared on 9 Oct 1890 in the Ogdensburg Advance and St. Lawrence Weekly Democrat in Ogdensburg, St. Lawrence, New York, as follows: "Richville, Oct. 6th.--. . . Mrs. A. M. Spooner, widow of Deacon E. J. Spooner, recently deceased, died at her home here Sept. 25th, after a two weeks illness. She was attended by Dr. Brownlow, of Ogdensburg and McFalls, of Gouverneur, but all that medical skill could do proved in vain.
    She wasted to a mere skeleton and suffered agonies until death came to her relief. Mrs. Spooner was a member of the congregational church and prominent as a Christian worker. She leaves six children to mourn her loss, viz: three daughters, Mrs. B. F. Chandler, of this village, Mrs. Anna B. Spencer, of DeKalb and Alice M., who has been dangerously sick for months past. Three sons, Fred, John C. and Frank. The funeral services were held from the Congregational Church, which was crowded with mourning friends. The sermon by the pastor, Rev. T. T. Davies, was full of comfort and consolation."

The deceased was the daughter of the late Edwin J. Spooner, who died July 29th. On Sept. 25th her mother passed away. In just six months from the day her father bade farewell to this world Alice joined them in the better land beyond. She was a patient sufferer for nearly two years and welcomed death as a release from her pain. Early in life she espoused the cause of Christ and was held in high esteem for her pure Christian work and character She was a devoted member of the Congregational church of this village, and for many years was organist of said church choir. She was also an active and working member of the W. C. T. U., and that organization attended her funeral in a body. Knowing her a Christian lady, we can only say she has gone before to lead more anxiously her friends journey to that celestial home above. The funeral service was held at the Congregational church on Tuesday afternoon, her pastor, Rev. T. Davis, assisted by Rev. G. Cross, officiating."
