  • He was buried in Swan Point Cemetery, Providence, Rhode Island.1

Story

Pawtucket, where he was born, and the Pawtucket Times, where he worked for more than half a century, were all-consuming interests in Chet Spooner's public life.

In pursuing both, Chet found an outlet for his wide-ranging talents and knowledge.

Regarded by his associates as a virtual genius with things mechanical, he brought this expertise to problems related to Times printing presses and stereotype equipment, to vehicles and diesel motors in his days as the paper's mechanical superintendent. More recently, as his responsibilities transcended the Times, he became concerned with the sophisticated, modern-day computers, optical character readers and video setters that are the heart of the photocomposition process. But he never lost his interest in people - the people who ran those machines - and he would make it a point, after an absence from the area to renew these relationships, always inquiring about these persons' families.

Typical of his view of life was his reaction to a four-day cruise he took aboard an aircraft carrier in 1964. Surrounded by planes and gadgets that fascinated him, he came away most impressed with what life in the Navy was doing to the nation's young men - opening new vistas, preparing them for rewarding careers and instilling in them qualities of character, initiative, pride and the incentive and motivation toward self-improvement.

Enamored as he was to machines, he always made them second to humans.
