Candace Rice-Henderson

Candy my friend. I'm so thankful you were a part of my life. I will miss the life as well as Postal advice you always had for me. You were a strong person and you showed us all what strength was. My condolences to your children as well as Richard. My prayers are with you all. Candy gurl, I'm gonna miss you. Once again thank you for being my Friend. Love you! Irene

I am a friend of one of Candace's daughters, Serenity. If it weren't for Facebook we probably wouldn't have been in touch. She was such a caring and loving person. She loved her family so very much. We would message. I told her that I loved her because without her I wouldn't be blessed to know Serenity and her girls if it weren't for her. I also thanked her for raising such a wonderful daughter. Candace was very upset about a dear friend that had passed and said that they used to walk their...

Dear Candace, I miss your smile and your positive energy! You will be in our memory and our hearts. May God comfort and provide strength to your loved ones. Sincerely, Elys Miranda Mayfair High School

Mommy, I can´t even begin to express how much I miss you, but I will try my best. I miss your voice, your morning texts and your goodnight messages. I miss your face, your little smile and the way your mouth would move when I was telling you something interesting. I miss your likes and comments on my posts, your emojis and and all of your Facebook shares. I miss your laugh and how we´d laugh so hard together that one (or both) of us would have to go pee and we´d laugh all the way to...

I share with you our condolences on behalf of Clairemont High School Class of '72. I first met Candace at Marston Junior High, probably in 7th grade.

Blessings to your family who so adored and loved you. They have many wonderful memories to hang onto and cherish. Debbie McKesson Friend and classmate CHS Class of '72

We were fortunate to meet both your mom and dad at the movie theater in Cerritos (Aquaman), and I remember telling Candace what an amazing job she did raising such an incredible individual, Serenity. I actually thanked her! Our deepest, heartfelt condolences go out to her husband Richard, our beloved Serenity Rodarte and family and all of her family and friends.

I'm going to miss you Candace. Thank you for being there for me when I was going thru my battle with cancer, and giving me support for the several "cancer scares" I've had, the last one was around the time when you were being tested,except yours was positive, mine was negative. I remember I went to go visit a friend of ours at the kaiser in Downey and I was so surprised to see you there, we talked for a good 40minutes then. I really appreciate your encouragement and strength and your...

Mommy there will always be a huge void in my heart but I know the memories of you will live on forever in my heart. I couldn´t have asked for a better mom to have raised me into the woman I am today. You were and always will be my hero. I´ll miss pampering you doing your nails and touching your hands as we chit chatted and laughed. Ill miss seeing the joy in your face everytime you would interact with Kadin. You were so proud to be a great nana I´ll miss your hugs and your wise advice in my...
