Patricia A. Rice
Patricia A. Rice, passed away on Monday February 17, 2025. She was born on December 30th, 1936, in Bergen, NY.
After leaving the family farm in Byron, Patricia became a stewardess for Capitol Airlines, predecessor to today's United, where she met the love of her life, Robert Rice. They married on September 28th, 63.

Predeceased are her parents William and Gertrude Krause. They had 6 children, William (deceased), Robert (Deceased) and Delores (Deceased), Surviving, Marty (Donna) of Bergen and Joan of Batavia. Many nieces and nephews she cherished.
Pat was an accomplished musician singing Capella harmonies with the Sweet Adelines for many years. Complimenting her singing skills, she also enjoyed playing trumpet, guitar, and the piano. One of Pat's greatest joys was the game of golf. As a long-term member of the Batavia Country Club, she won multiple Ladies Championships and along with Bob's golf skills, many couples events. At her prime, she could give many of the men a run. She loved not only her golf but spending beautiful summer days outside with friends along with the challenges of the sport.
After 25 years of service as a school bus driver for Byron-Bergen, culminating as the district Director of Transportation, she retired and relocated to Florida with Robert to enjoy many more sunny days on the greens.
Services will be announced at a later date.
