She graduated from Chester High School in 1976 and worked in the nursing field until her retirement. On February 3, 1979 she married Lamont Spangler and subsequently moved to McPherson, Kansas returning to Chester in the 1980’s. Maria had a beautiful personality and a warm heart. She had a wonderful sense of humor and found joy in making people smile. She enjoyed holidays, preparing meals and attending gatherings with her family. She also enjoyed reading, music, dancing and had recently rekindled her love for knitting. But her absolute favorite pastime was caring for and spending time with her five beautiful grandchildren who she dearly loved and to whom she was deeply devoted. Her husband, three sons and five grandchildren were the loves of her life. Maria is predeceased by a son, Lamont Napier Spangler Jr. She leaves to cherish her memory her husband & best friend of 41 years, Lamont Spangler of Chester, PA, her three sons, Kevin Towns of Royersford, PA, Michael Spangler of Chester, PA, Daniel Spangler (Erin) of Brookhaven, PA, two grandsons, Kevin Towns Jr. and Kobe Towns of Wissahickon, PA, three granddaughters, Mya Spangler, Maura Spangler, and Marielle Spangler of Brookhaven, PA, one brother, Ernest Towns, III of Clifton Heights, PA, three sisters, Deborah Dix of New Castle, DE, Cheryl Towns of Collegeville, PA, Lisa Moss (Jeffrey) of Suffolk, VA and a host of nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
