article does not address anything that specifically makes him notable-like his father, it's mostly cullings from genealogy and obits Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 16:49, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Keep – However, I think he's notable mainly for the gift related to the John Spoor Broome Library. This is a terrific building, by Norman Foster. The library article links to him and people will want to know who he was. I would stub the rest of the article. Namely, he was a rich man who inherited a very large ranch from his father, sold it, and gave away a lot of money, notably for the library. (We also have a long article on the ranch, which mentions him.) – Margin1522 (talk) 21:37, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
