Hal Rice has died
We are very sorry to report that Hal Rice has died, due to injuries received in a car accident last week. He was alone and we have heard that Sonya was not involved. Hal was a long time fan and, with his wife Sonya, Fan Guest of Honor at the 1998 Bouchercon in Philadelphia. One of mainstays of mystery fandom throughout the years, he will be sorely missed.
