M. Jane Spice, 82, of Temperance, MI, died Thursday, February 6, 2014, at Hospice of Northwest Ohio, Perrysburg Twp., OH. Born January 14, 1932, she was the daughter of Paul and Florence (Nicholson) Tanner. Jane attended University High School in Ann Arbor, MI, and then graduated from DeVilbiss High School in 1950. Jane received her Bachelor’s of Education from the University of Toledo. She was married to Burt Spice for 57 years, and he preceded her in death on May 17, 2010. Jane taught for the Toledo Public Schools, including Scott High School, Robinson Junior High School and DeVeaux Junior High School for over 35 years. She was the business manager for Y.M.C.A., Camp Storer, for 7 summers during the 1960’s.
Burt and Jane held a great love for the outdoors and their belief in our responsibility to care for God’s great Earth gave them a desire to develop and enhance nature. As a result they spent much time, talent and hard work to develop their own land. They were always grateful to all those that helped. There were many! Thank you.
