Dr. Edward A. Rice Jr.

Its not good-bye its see ya later love this phrase I learned from a VA chaplain seeing all the words about Ed helps me remember all those things about him that made him so special. I love chocolate labs too. They are in heaven with him so happy

Only now have I learned of Ed's passing. I met him when he volunteered at Botany Bay, and got to know him when Colby bit my hand on my last day on Edisto! I made a foolish mistake but Ed acted as if I were saintly to accept responsibility. He made sure I got antibiotics before leaving SC and kept in touch to be sure I healed well. He took us to dinner the following year at Po' Pigs and was just the kindest and most gentle man. We talked about Carew Rice - I have my mother's Uncle Wiggily...

It was a wonderful supportive position at the Outer Banks medical center in nags head North Carolina. I worked with him as a physician assistant there in primary care as well as emergency medicine. Many fun and tragic times there as a remote medical facility
Enjoyed working with Ed so much and sorry to hear about this tragic accident.

I knew Eddie from our days on Riggs Drive in Clemson. I was Marcia McFadden in those days. My sympathy goes out to Beth and Peggy. May your memories help ease the pain and fill the void he leaves. Beth, I was Margaret' s roommate at Winthrop. I would love to catch up with her. Bob and I have retired in Clemson. My email is [email protected]. Love,Marcia Barrett

Deepest sympathy and prayers to Beth, Maggie and Corday.

Ed was one of a kind. Mark and I loved our wild times all through medical school and up until his death.He is now at peace.MARK and VICKY MEYER

I worked with Ed at Valdese General Hospital. I was one of the physicians on call frequently for my own patients and unassigned patients who didn't have a physician. We had many conversations as I was waiting for lab work or xrays on a patient we were going to admit. I really enjoyed his sense of humor and his kindness towards his patients. I also greatly respected his sense of humility. The medical community will truly miss him. Ed Bujold, MD

so enjoyed the fun many years ago, with beth, ed and the kids when they were all little. condolences to all- Valerie gross

When we first met Ed, he was a friendly neighbor with an endless supply of good-humored stories and an affinity for chocolate labs. Four years later, I would liken the relationship we had with Ed to that of a family member, especially for our brown dog, Brady. I feel so incredibly lucky that Ed came into our lives and that we had the opportunity to have known him. It's rare to encounter a person so kind-hearted, interesting, and with such a zest for life. As a good friend said to me after...
