You where a second mother to us you will be truly missed
I graduated with Renee and enjoyed her friendship. We were in girl scouts and 4-H in elementary school. She was fun loving and full of mischeif. She will be deeply missed by her classmates of the calss of 1973 from RGHS.
Renee was a sweet person and dedicated mom, she took great care of her sweet son, she is now in Heaven looking at her sweet son with smiles of Joy. Prayers of comfort with sweet memories to her children and grand children. Beautiful lady from the inside out.
So sorry for your loss
I knew Renee all my life. She lived across the street from us and was our main babysitter when we were kids. She used to put us all to bed and then let me and my sister get up to watch scary movies with her after my brothers fell asleep! She loved Tom Jones and we had to watch his concerts with her sometimes. I just re-connected with Renee on Facebook recently and I was so sad to read of her passing last week. I pray for God’s peace and comfort for her daughters and other family members. Until you meet again. God bless you.
With sympathy, words cannot express the sorrow I feel at your loss. My heart aches for you.
To all of Renee’s family,
We would like to express our deepest sympathies. Renee was such a kind and giving person. May happy memories carry you through this sorrowful time.
Sincerely,
Phyllis and Skip Umstead
There are no words…Miss and Love you so much!!! Joe & Norma Warner Family
I would like to express my deepest sympathy for the loss of your beloved mother, grandmother, and sister. Renee and I became friends as young girls and graduated from high school together. Adult life took us our separate ways, but we would always have a nice visit whenever we saw each other around town. Her family meant everything to her ~ she loved you dearly and cherished the times she spent with you. Renee touched many people’s lives with her kind and caring ways… she will be missed and never forgotten. Wishing you comfort and peace as you remember the happy times…
Sincerely,
Rosalyn (Walker) Miller
I remember Renee from school, she always had a smile and always felt like she was your friend and anytime I would run into her she still made you feel that way. Hadn’t seen her in long time and was sad to hear of her passing. She was truly a Special person ! I chose the forget me not symbol as it reminded me of her !
