Rick Spencer - 1957 - 2008

On January 11th 2008, cancer robbed the Dayton music scene of one of it’s most avid artists and supporters, Rick Spencer. On what would have been his 51st birthday, we plan to honor Rick’s memory with an event celebrating him with the music and musicians that he loved so very much. We will have music (featuring Peggy Welty, Miss Lissa & Company and SHRUG!), door prizes, raffles, snacks, birthday cake, sharing of photos and stories of Rick and his adventures with us all. Please bring your memories and join us as we celebrate him and all the lives he touched with his life.


Please join us!!





Thanks!!
-Melissa
(PLEASE REPOST- THIS IS FOR A GREAT CAUSE!!)
