Davis, Constance R.: - Constance R. Davis, affectionately known as "Ma Spice," grew up in Detroit, Michigan. After high school, she attended Eastern Michigan University before graduating from the Michigan Paralegal Institute. In addition to being a single mom to her own son, Anthony "Spice" Adams, Connie was also "Ma Spice" to her nephews and several young men in the neighborhood. The childhood tales of Anthony and his friends growing up together are the inspiration for this book and the many stories to follow. In 2003, Anthony was drafted by the NFL's San Francisco 49ers and Ma Spice continued to support her son, now as an NFL Mom. When she is not at church or in the kitchen cooking, you can find Ma Spice being an awesome grandma to her grandchildren, great nieces, and nephews. And, of course, Ma Spice continues to dedicate herself to supporting and encouraging the local youth.
