Ida Denise Rice

Ida Denise, it grieves me terribly to just discover today that you are no longer with us. We worked in day care at the same time. When I went into the school system we somehow lost touch. I miss you and I am shocked about the news.

Your friend,

Mr. Rice, Ivy and Whitney,

I extend my most heart felt sympathy to you in this difficult time. I remember your mother as a beautiful person who was always willing to help. She was most kind and generous.

My love and prayers to your and your family.

Clyde, Ivey and Whitney:
Benae and I were very sorry to hear about your wife and mother. We will keep you in our prayers. May God bless you and your family.

To Clyde, Ivey and Whitney,
Words could never say what we felt for Denise. You all will always be in our prayers and she will stay in our hearts. May God keep you and comfort you always.

I met Ida Denise Ross (Nesse as we called her) when I was 13 years old. I joined a church which Nesse was already a member of. We sang on the Cherub Choir and we immediately became the best of friends. Even though we went to different schools, Nesse and I were thick as thieves. We shared our most deepest and intimate secrets with one another. She was my confidant and I was hers. Nesse lived with her then sister-in-law Sheila, because her mother was deceased. Sheila was married to Nesse's...

Mr. Rice, Ivey and Whitney,
We are all so sorry to hear about Denise. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
