1959 ~ 2017

He was born December 9, 1959, in Salt Lake City, Utah to Jack Edward Rice and Nancy Ann Newsome.
He attended Cyprus High School. He received a scholarship to Trade Tech - GMC Training Center from Governor Rampton.
His life's occupation was a mechanic.
Last employment was with Granite School District where he repaired all gas trucks and cars.
He always had a very dedicated personality. George was very reserved in his personal affairs and very frugal, but generous when he saw a need.
In his younger years, he was a very good boy never causing his parents any problems.
His whole adult life was cars; his profession and hobby.
He rebuilt VW Bugs and restored them to original condition.
Still in his garage is a 1986 GMC truck he restored from the frame to new condition.
He traveled to car museums and car shows throughout the country.
Eternally loved and remembered.
He will be missed.
