Norman Rice

18 januari 1943 - 12 mei 2020

It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Norman from cancer. Norman retired from the College in June 2015 after 44 years of teaching at Epsom. In his time, he had been Head of Economics and a Tutor in Propert and Crawfurd. In 1978 he became Housemaster of Fayrer, Third Master in 1991, Senior Master in 1994, and Deputy Head in 1998. Following his first 'retirement' in 2003, Norman became the Honorary Secretary of the OE Club for three years, while continuing to teach Economics at the College part-time. Norman gave a full contribution to sport, notably in football (he was a fine player himself) and in coaching athletics (in his prime, he excelled as a Triple Jumper). His passion for athletics meant that he continued to compete at veteran meetings long after most of his contemporaries had retired. Headmaster, Jay, Piggot, says, "The man simply was indefatigable; he imbued all the finest qualities of a complete schoolmaster, he will be missed." Norman is survived by his wife, Carole, and daughters Jennifer, Zoe and Danielle.

I was so sad to hear of Norman's passing. I was at Epsom from 96-01, and as one of the first intake of girls in the early years, I remember looking up to him with awe, respect and admiration. His wife who was also a teacher at the school travelled with me on the school adventure to Bolivia, and I know his daughter who was in the year below me well. Norman was a presence at the school - and everyone of my peers, myself included respected him deeply. As I got to the 6th form, I remember having short but positive interactions with Norman during my time at the school each term. I send my through and love to his family - he will be missed.
