Sincere sympathy to Margo and family.

I will sadly miss my annual Frontline Defenders breakfast with Rodney in Dublin City Hall. He always gave great encouragement for my work in Sport Against Racism Ireland. I will keep an empty seat beside me in his memory.

Dearest Margo, sincere sympathy on the death of Rodney - a huge loss for you, Caitriona, Eoghan and Cian. I had the pleasure of knowing Rodney and always felt personally enriched when in his company. He contributed so much and always with the integrity he was well known for. He excelled in his broadcasting career but more importantly as a family man full of humour and kindness. I always try to say to myself the "dead" are never "dead" unless they are forgotten and Rodney will never be forgotten. May his soul rest in Peace.

Sincere sympathy to you Margo, Eoghan and the entire Rice family. RIP Rodney

Condolences to the Rice family. My fond memory of Rodney is meeting him first, in the early 1960s in Bournemouth, where we both were Bus Conductors as students. May he rest in peace.

'Met Rodney, on Air, several times in the early 1970s, when He gently but determinedly interviewed me, and again in the late 1980s, when both He & I did some work for the IMI, and adjourned to a local Pub, for several highly-enjoyable Pints.

Not only was Rodney a superb journalist but also a great colleague. His concern for others was exemplified by his trade union work in RTE and his genuine kindness of which I, no doubt along with many others, was the recipient and for which I'll always be grateful.

Sincerest condolences Cat and Family. Sending love and keeping you all in our thoughts x

Was shocked to hear of Rodney's passing. I always knew of Rodney from the radio but I got to know him well from the Association of European Journalists lunches and the post-lunch sojourn to a nearby hostelry. He was always great company and will be sorely missed. Cherish all the great memories, they will help you through the sad times.

So sorry to hear about Rodney’s passing. He was a colleague on Worlds Apart a programme he was passionately devoted to. He believed we needed to have much more engagement through the media with the Majority World. Rodney made a major contribution in raising awareness and he always managed to integrate that knowledge into main stream current affairs. Rest in Peace.
