Solange Boideau Spencer (October 21, 1933. September 18, 2022) age 88 Solange was born in Paris to Moises Boideau and Therese Galperti Boideau who predeceased Solange as well as her son Michael and her husband Perry Ivan Spencer.

Solange is also survived by Perry’s brothers Gerald Spencer (Judy), Tom Spencer (Sherry), Darryl Spencer (Sherrie) and his sister’s Gail Spencer Stewart and Brenda Spencer. Solange was born in Paris, France and raised in the village of Lavau which fell under Nazi occupation. Her mother operated a local cafe and her father was a barber prior to World War II. While serving in the military her father was a POW in the war against Nazi Germany and was released at the end of the war. Solange went on to earn a college degree in France and later met and married Perry in Chateauroux, France. Solange immigrated to the States in 1959 with 6 month old son Tony alone and speaking limited English. She arrived in New York City, overwhelmed and emotional by the long journey and unsure of when Perry would arrive. An officer in the US Military came to her aid and assisted her in re-uniting with Perry. Their travels would take them to Ellsworth Air Force Base near Rapid City, South Dakota. Solange would spend many weekends with her family in the Black Hills. Perry would later be assigned to several other locations before retiring and moving the family to the Mobile area where Solange continued her education and worked as a nurse at a local doctor's office. Solange loved to dress in her favorite colors of Orange, peach, salmon and purple. She loved her clip on earrings, necklaces, and her many rings, some of which Perry, husband, made for her. She loved to have her hair fixed every week by the hairdresser who really knew how to tease and spray. She also had her nails done and normally in a shade of orange. The family wishes to thank the caregivers at Ashbury Manor who were so loving and caring. A graveside service will be held on Saturday, October 1, 2022 at 10:00 am at Serenity Gardens Cemetery, 8951 Old Pascagoula Road, Theodore, AL 36528.
