Obituary For Mrs. Kitty Madeline Spencer

Mrs. Kitty Madeline Saulter Spencer departed her earthly life the morning of Thursday, October 29, 2026. She was born August 15, 1938, in Columbia, SC and was a resident of High Point, NC most of her life.

She was the daughter of Isaac and Louise Bailey Saulter. She attended the High Point City Schools and graduated from William Penn High School. She attended Manhattan School of Nursing New York and took great pride in her work there.

After returning to High Point, she met and married James Spencer and for 58 years was a devoted wife and mother of three children, who she adored.

She continued to work as a certified caregiver. Later she was employed with Carustar Industries for 16 years.

She was dedicated to her family and found much pleasure in her six grandchildren and five great grandchildren who lit up her life. They affectionately called her Mee-maw.

At an early age she accepted Christ and participated in different capacities in the church. She loved sharing her musical talent, Christian work and helping people.

She was preceded in death by her parents, siblings: James “Pete”, William “Billy”, Gladys, Sally, Beatrice, Brenda and Ethel and daughter-in-law, Saisette Marks Spencer She will be remembered for her compassionate giving nature, encouraging kind heart and happy spirit.

Those left to cherish her: her husband, one daughter Kim Burke (Rickey) two sons, Ron Spencer Sr. and Thomas Spencer (Rev. Niki), grandchildren: Kourtney, Stephany, Stacey, Kendall, Ron, Jr., and Starr; and great grandchildren, Khloe Brielle, Kade, Camari, Khalil and Kinsley, god-daughter, Rev. Marlo Shoffner and one god-son, Jeremy McCray and a host of relatives and friends.

We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
