Michael Rice Obituary

Michael Rossman "Mick" Rice, age 34, beloved son of Royden "Ross" and Cynthia; loving brother of Andrew David (Carolanne); dear nephew of Kenneth Kaas (Barb), Karen Hanson, Laurie Haines, Susan Grimes (Steven), Randy Kaas, Glenn Kaas, Buzz Kaas (Sherry), and Rene Jewett; and friend to many loving cousins, is at rest. A memorial visitation was held Tuesday, April 11, 2023 from 5-8 pm at Modell Funeral Home, 7710 S. Cass Ave., Darien. A memorial Mass was held on Wednesday, April 12, 2023 at 10:00 am at Our Lady of Peace Church, 701 Plainfield Road, Darien. Interment Private. Mick was an accomplished tattoo artist and sharing this gift was his greatest joy. His light will keep shining through the hundreds of personal remembrances he created for others. His whole life he found solitude in the outdoors and was an accomplished angler. In contrast, Mick was perceptive, strategic and loved outmaneuvering opponents in weekly charity poker tournaments. Peace be with you Mick. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Trinity Sober Living, 135 George Street, Bensenville, IL 60106. For funeral information: 630-852-3595 or www.modelldarien.com
