Jimmy Kimmel Live’s security guard Veatrice Rice lost her battle with cancer and passed away from the disease yesterday. Veatrice was a tough as nails, foul mouthed woman who would make us laugh whenever she opened her mouth on the show which wasn’t that often so you it was special when she did! Recently I started calling people dumb a$$es thinking it was because of That ’70s Show, but it wasn’t that show that did that. It was Veatrice who helped to add that word to my vocabulary. So go ahead and call someone dumb a$$ today in her honor.
My prayers go out to her husband John and everyone at Jimmy Kimmel Live! Donations can be made in her honor to The American Cancer Society at www.cancer.org or the Paralyzed Veterans of America at www.pva.org.
UPDATE: The producers of Jimmy Kimmel Live! posted video of some Veatrice Rice’s funniest bits on the show on the Jimmy Kimmel Live! YouTube channel! Enjoy the laughs in her honor, I think she woukld want us to. 59 was way too young die, but she will live on in these videos and in our memories.
