You are in ours thoughts and prayers, Coach Rice will truly be missed. He has touch so many of our lives. Our love and deepest sympathy.

I was one of Coach Rice's students in the late 50's at Corner and several years later at Wallace Community College and have fond memories of him. He made quite an impact on many young lives and will always be remembered fondly. Prayers are with the entire family of this fine man.

What a loss for our community. Mr. Rice will always have a special place in our hearts and in our memories. Love and sympathy to you all.

Anita, please accept my deepest, heartfelt, condolences. While I never had the pleasure of being one of your fathers students, I know that he had an incredible impact on every child that he taught, and every person that he met. His name and reputation has stood tall in the Bagley and Corner communities for years, and I have no doubt that the life lessons learned from him will continue in the lives of his former students for years to come. ~ Karl Jones CHS Class of 84

My sincere condolences to the family. I think of "Coach" Rice with fondest memories - his smile and his kindness. He was a wonderful teacher at Corner High School. His students are better people because of his inspiration. He will be remembered with honor.

Anita I am so sorry to hear of your
Dad's passing. I remember him from many years at Corner where my brother played football for him. Your family will be in our prayers.

I was fortunate to have Mr. Rice as a teacher at Corner School. I remember cutting my knee when I was a child and Mr. Rice took me home. My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this time.
