I also have very fond memories of Renee. She & my Uncle Murray were great for each other. His ying & her yang. They shared many happy years together & made my Uncle's life complete after retiring from the military. Rest in peace Renee. You are finally home.

Aunt Renee was a vibrant, caring and loving woman. For the past 23 years I have had the pure pleasure of calling her "Aunt Renee". Thru her relationship with my uncle, I have the pleasure and honor of meeting my "family" that I feel that I have know my whole life but did'nt meet until Murray and Renee got together. For that alone, I will always be eternally grateful. Aunt Renee, I love you with all of my heart and I will always remember your kindness and love shown to me. You are now home Ichiban! Rest in Peace.
