Brice was born in Greenville, North Carolina, on July 19, 1995, to Bruce McDonald (Don) and Susan Castleberry Edwards. She attended St. Peter's Catholic School (K-8) and graduated from J.H. Rose High School. She then attended NC State University, where she graduated magna cum laude in 2017 with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting and a concentration in Financial Analysis. Brice was a beloved sister of the Iota Phi Chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha Fraternity. Brice later earned her Master's degree in Accounting from the Poole College of Management at NC State University. She subsequently completed her CPA and began her career working with Deloitte LLP, quickly rising to a senior-level position.
Brice is survived by her only love and mate in life, John Royal Bunting IV of Raleigh, North Carolina; parents, Don and Susan Edwards, of Greenville, North Carolina; best friend and sister, Cassie Edwards Forbis, and her husband, Blake, of Charlotte, North Carolina; paternal grandmother, Frances Edwards, of Simpson, North Carolina; uncles and aunts, Dene Castleberry and wife, Elaine, Cheryl Johnson and husband, Steve, and Todd Edwards; cousins; godparents, Teresa Morris and Mike Steele; and cherished goldendoodle, Beasley.
Born with an immensely strong character, a unique natural grace and a vivacious and infectious personality, Brice was wise beyond her years. Those who knew her well recognized her irresistible mischievousness of spirit. Brice looked for the best in people, situations, opportunities and life. Her smile was instantly heartwarming and lit not only her face but also her piercing blue eyes. Brice was a leader with a caring personality and encouraged others to be the very best version of themselves.
