We are learning how much Mom loved the outdoors, as both a brownie/girl scout and as a young teen. Maybe her sisters will let me in on some of these stories a bit more!

Alice (note home address listed!) is entered in the Miss Outdoors contest! What happens next?
Alice is directly in the center – yes, the short one!
Alice moves forward in Miss Miami Valley Outdoors contest. I guess pageant life wasn’t too far off for Spicer ladies! Alice went to Stivers school, which is interesting, because Connie’s great grandfather, Ed Dexter taught there at that same time.
Adding a “scrapbook page” which will include these same images plus many more. Have a look! (PS-you need a password to view them… Ask us what the password is!)
We will add more information over time. In the meantime, if you have a story you would enjoy sharing about Mom, feel free to send it on or ask how you can post it here.
Love,
Grandpa and Grammy

We are just a couple of crazy kids who found each other all over again. And after a while, we decided our family should figure out who their family was... At least, the Spicer/Cunningham part of it. So, we started putting this together. As a gift for you. We hope you enjoy it. Feel free to ask to join if you are a connected family member and you think you might enjoy dropping a picture or article here to share.
