He was as good a guy as you could ever meet," said Tim Stacy of Zanesfield, one of Spicer's brothers. "He was in the military for 15 years. He loved the military. It was his life." Spicer joined the Marines after graduating from Benjamin Logan High School in Zanesfield in 1994. Zanesfield is southeast of Bellfontaine, about 53 miles from Columbus. Spicer's wife, Kate, gave birth to their first child, a daughter, one year ago and is pregnant with a son, Stacy said… The family was told that Spicer was in line to be promoted to gunnery sergeant and will receive that honor posthumously. He will be buried with full military honors in Arlington National Cemetery, Stacy said.
