Christopher Walter Rice

Sending my deepest condolences to Chris's family and friends. I am SO sorry for your loss. As one of his Edward Jones clients, I appreciated his care, expertise, and friendliness. Reading this beautiful tribute, I can see that he planted many seeds of love and experiences in the lives of his family. I hope that you will find endless comfort in these memories.

After a small inheritance I invested with him. He was always cheerful and supportive. I felt so inexperienced and nervous about investing and he has helped me over and over through so many life changes. I will remember the care and respect he showed me.

Chris held those he cared for very tightly and he never missed an opportunity to let you know that you were loved and appreciated. I am fortunate to have been one of those people. His love for his children was so great! He really set the bar very high for being an amazing dad! Always making special memories with them. He was also a huge animal lover and I absolutely adored that about him! He always made our dogs feel so special when he would come to visit. Chris will be deeply missed. I just wish we all had more time with this special man!

Chris was always kind and approachable. He was energetic and passionate in his pursuit of serving others. When we would commiserate about the challenges of life, I would feel thankful for what he would return to me in those conversations. And then suddenly an orchid would show up with a thank you card, thanking ME for what I did for HIM when it felt like it was so much the other way around. I will miss seeing his smile and having a sit down to catch up and hear how things are going in each other's lives. I will truly miss Chris and wish for peace for his children, as I know he loved them very very much.
