Bev was a wonderful friend to the entire Rice family. When my mom was too old to get out to a stylist, Bev would make a house call to cut her hair, laughing and talking up a storm. Bev would make wonderful birthday dinner for my sister, Zedda, inviting the sisters over for a great evening every year. She was a successful businesswoman, but more than that, she was a successful human being who lived and loved ferociously. We will miss her.
