I'll tell you what. This couple raised some children who never had an ounce of pride or conceitfulness in them. They were the most sincere traveling singers you could find.

Brock Speer passed away in the late 90's. Brock's wife, Faye Ihrig Speer died in 2015. Mary Tom died in 2014 and Rosa Nell is still alive as I write this (2016). Ben Speer is still going although he was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's. The piano player in this video, Ginger Laxson is still alive and is musical director at her local church alongside her husband.

Yes, younger brother Ben Spear is alive. He is about 83 now. You can see him as the music arranger on Bill Gaither videos. Ginger Smith playing the piano is still alive. She married a minister. Dad Spear wrote so many wonderful songs. They have always been my favorite singing family. I take pride in the fact that they are from Double Springs, AL.

1. Time has made a change since my childhood days; Many of my friends have gone away, Some I never more in this life will see Time has made a change in me. Chorus: Time has made a change in the old home place; Time has made a change in each smiling face, And I know my friends can plainly see Time has made a change in me. 2. In my childhood days, I was well and strong I could climb the hillside all day long, I am not today what I used to be Time has made a change in me. 3. When I reach my home in that land somewhere, With my friends who wait to meet me over there, Free from pain and care I'll forever be, Time has made a change in me.

That is a question that I can no answer for sure. A friends says that she heard Ben say that "I am the only one left". But I have search the internet and I can't find conformation of the sister's passing. I will continue to search. Thanks for your interest. They are the best Gospel Music Family ever in my opinion.
