Dear Grandpa Brice,
Thank you for giving me the power to believe. You were not one to give materialistic gifts, but you gave me something much more. From the age I can remember, I recall a particular Christmas Eve from about 12 years ago. I looked outside in the backyard to see a man in a big red coat holding a sack of what looked like presents. On that night I saw Santa Claus. You started my life with the gift to believe and left my life with an even stronger belief. You left through rainbows, rain, thunder, lightning, beaming sun, and if that was not enough, hail. Yes, hail in Hollywood, CA. Only you would get a good joke from the weather you sent us. After the extreme weather conditions subsided, a beam of light peered out from the clouds and a rainbow appeared right before us. At that moment I knew it was your way to say you are safe and happy in heaven but will always be here with us in spirit. Thank you for giving me the gift to believe, now and for forever. I love you!
Xoxo,
Lauren

Thanks Dad for all that you did for me. I miss you so much right now. I know you are in Heaven and looking down at all of us--especially Mom. I will think of you every day until I die. Love, your only son  Brice C.

Dad,  Thank you for a wonderful life. Thank you for having me. Thank you for always being honest and true to yourself. Some of my favorite memories were playing tennis with you. You would set up tournaments and I became  your double's partner. You were known for those tricky net shots. If we did well, it was because of you! Love you always and forever, Stacey

Stacey,
My Thoughts have been with you All day! How blessed your Father has been to have such a kind & wonderful Family. What A Legacy for his Name! I will remember his Laugh, making me Laugh! Hugs to You, Your Perfect Children, Your Kind Husband, & Your Lovely Mother! My Love to All of you, Amy

Norma,Stacey, Paul, Lauren, Austin, My memories of Brice are wonderful. I  always enjoyed finding a chair next to him at a birthday party or family gathering, just shooting the breeze listening to him joke and laugh. God have him that contagious laugh , I am sure he is sitting now with the angels in heaven laughing hysterically at all the joy and glory he sees and feels. May God cheer your hearts in celebrating his life .  Jim Cotè

Stacey, I am so sorry to hear about the passing of  your father.  I know that he will be dearly missed.  Always remember that your memories will keep him alive in your heart.  It doesn't matter how long he is gone, he  will always be right there next to you to guide you and give you love.  My love to you and all your family.  Mary Cooke
