Remembering the Spencer Family
On April 22, 2011, Dylan, Amy, Chase and Ansley Spencer of Scott City perished in a tragic plane crash near Topeka, Kansas while flying to visit family for Easter weekend. They left behind a town that had been incredibly touched by the enthusiasm and passion they brought to their lives and their extensive involvement in the community.
“I truly believe the success of the SFEC lays in the hands of the volunteers, board members and the pilot community investing in and contributing to our mission. Without our volunteer network and supportive community, we wouldn’t exist!”
