John Edward Rice Sr. In Loving Memory of John Edward Rice Sr. 08/19/29 - 05/24/02 On this day, a year ago, we held you in our arms as you left us and went to heaven. We feel your absence daily. We remember a man who never met a stranger and made friends wherever he went. Our hearts are filled with loving and wonderful memories. You were a devoted and loving husband and father. We miss you so much. Henry, Johnny, Vicky, family and friends. Published in The Courier-Journal on 5/24/2003.
