Dear Rice Family:
My deepest sympathy to your family during this time of grieving with the passing away of your mother, Myrtle Rice. As you may recall, I was her chaplain at both Cabell Huntington Hospital's kidney dialysis unit and at St. Mary's Medical Center.
I enjoyed getting to know Myrtle very much. She qwas quite a lady. I enjoyed laughing with her and listening to her stories about her family! We often prayed together She would often ask me about my son that my wife and I have. She will always have a special place in my heart.
I wish you all the best. I will be praying for your family during this time of greieving.
Rev. Curtis R. Freed
