Robert Rice, 86, has now joined his late wife Doris (Myers) Stauffer Rice. He was born in Gap to the late John and Louetta (Graham) Rice.

Bob’s family that survives include Sandi and Jack Miller, Gary and Jennie Stauffer, Maribeth and Ken McMullen, and their children and grandchildren, his brother John “Jack” Rice, as well as his many nieces and nephews who made his days brighter.
