To family and friends:

'God didn’t promise days without pain,
laughter without sorrow, sun without rain;
but He did promise strength for the day,
comfort for the tears and light for the way'.

Rest in peace Deputy Rice.

God speed brother...I realize that I am a state away however I have family in South Carolina and go through Laurens Co to get to Kershaw. I've traveled this route hundreds of times and always thought how peaceful and beautiful this county is. I am so sorry that it has to be disturbed in this mannor. God be with the family, department and citizens of the county as you go though this. I too know the loss of an officer on duty as we had a seasoned officer shot and killed after a brief vehicle chase. He worked for a very small department and I am blessed to have known him both professional and personal. Rest easy brother, your work is done..Safe journey..
