Joyce IdaRICESadly passed away at home on 6th September 2026, aged 98 years. Reunited with her dearest husband Robert Leslie Rice and much loved mum to Stephen.

When I'm on my own mum, I always think of you, Thoughts about the laughs we shared, And the things we used to do, We had so many happy times together you and I. You can't replace that kind of love, No matter how you try. These words alone cannot convey, What I feel within my heart, But I know some day we'll meet again, And then we'll never part.

Funeral service to take place at Loughborough Crematorium on Thursday 1st October 2026 at 10.15am.

Family flowers only please by request but donations if so desired to P.D.S.A.

Dear Great Aunt Joyce, you will be so dearly missed. We have such wonderful memories of you. I will never forget you playing with our son, Ethan, on the swings and seesaw when you were 85! The smile on your face, as though you were still a teenager (you always were in your heart!). Rest in peace. You will be forever in our hearts ♥️ Emily, Andy and Ethan xxx

Sending condolences to Stephen. ( You probably won't know me) Joyce was involved in the St Botolphs Church community, with my Mum , Betty
( in the choir from at least the 1960s) Joyce always had a smile, whether it was whilst helping on the Christmas Fayre stalls, or Tuesday group, young wives, or on a Sunday morning, she always had time to chat, she was such a welcoming and personable lady.
Thinking of you all.
Rest in peace Joyce xx
