Paul Rice Jr. Obituary

The passing of Paul Rice Jr. of Morristown, Tennessee, born in Baltimore, Maryland leaves a void in the hearts of many, as we bid farewell to a loving soul who departed on May 8, 2026 at the age of 54. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

Though Paul may no longer walk beside us, his memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Paul touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In his absence, his spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.

He was predeceased by: his father Paul Rice, Sr.; and his grandparents, John and Carmela Rice. He is survived by: his wife Michelle Rice; his son Melik Rice; his mother Deborah Robertson; his stepfather Roy Robertson; his sister Dana Rice; and his stepmother Christine Rice. He is also survived by numerous friends, extended family.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial donations be made to Paul's son, Melik A. Rice's college fund at Edward Jones (1404 S. Sizer Ave., Suite E., Jefferson City, TN 37760).
