Dreama Gay Spangler, 59 of True, WV passed away on Sunday, December 29, 2024.
Born on February 16,1965 in Roanoke, VA, she was the daughter of Delores Hill Abshire Owen of Lerona, WV and the late James E. Abshire.
Dreama cherished her memories growing up around her Mamaw Zona and Papaw Archie Hill's home with her sisters and several special cousins in Lerona, WV. She attended Athens High School and later Bluefield State where she completed coursework toward an RN degree, but decided instead to pursue a Bachelors of Education at Concord College where she graduated in 1991. She loved her few years teaching in the Summers County Head Start program. The years Dreama spent with her loving husband Timmy and 3 children on their farm at True WV was a treasure. Timmy and Dreama together enjoyed singing in church and with their special friends. Dreama was a talented piano player helping with worship at both Lerona United Methodist Church where she grew up and attended and James Chapel Methodist Church where she was a member over the years. In addition to being a talented piano player, Dreama enjoyed writing her own poetry and reading. Her greatest joy was spending time with her children Jacob, Jessie and Woody, grandchildren Hallie and Ethan, and all her loved ones. She loved sharing Bible verses and special quotes on Facebook and sharing pictures of her loved ones. While she suffered many losses and trials, Dreama loved the Lord Jesus Christ and appreciated his mercy, grace and many blessings.
Besides her father, she was preceded in death by her husband, Timothy Spangler; son, Woodrow Gabriel "Woody" Spangler; step-father, Danny Owen.
