On the passing of Tony Rice



Date Posted: September 8, 2022

We were so sorry to learn of the sudden passing of Tony Rice on Thursday 1st September. Tony was a much valued member of the accounts team in the film and TV industry for many years working on LINE OF DUTY, DALGLIESH, THE DECEIVED, MARCELLA, WILDFIRE and ORDINARY LOVE to name just a few.  Having worked in the Finance/IT industry for many years Tony became a Senior Broadcast Journalist at CityBeat News before moving to the accounts department.  Tony will be greatly missed by his many friends and colleagues in the film and TV community in NI.

All are welcome to attend the Funeral Service on Friday 9th September at 3pm in James Brown & Sons Funeral Home, 438 Shore Road, Newtownabbey. (This will be followed by a private committal for family only).

Our thoughts are with his wife Louise, children James and Olivia, family and friends at this difficult time.
