To the entire Rice Family;

Our deepest sympathy to you all. He was the heart and soul of the 'ol neighborhood in Berwyn. You could be driving down the alley and you would always see him out in the yard! He loved taking care of his yard. He was always up for a good conversation and a "cocktail." So many good times! Heaven gained a very special man and truly a one of a kind. You will all continue to be in our thoughts and prayers in the days and weeks ahead.
Rest in peace Ed, Mr. Rice.

Love,
The Gentilini Family
