She was one of the happiest, friendliest, even sometimes craziest people I have had the pleasure of knowing from little on up, from volunteerism to working side by side with her mother, Melanie. I had the honor of catering her wedding. I have not forgotten that day. It was absolutely beautiful, just like Renee and her personality. She could light up the world with her smile. I am so deeply sorry for your loss Joe. I know she was a great wife to you and a great mother to the children. I know you and your children will greatly miss her. For Melanie, my deepest sympathy goes out to you. I am so sorry for your loss as well. I am still in shock. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you and your families. You all have great memories to hang on to, and you will. I pray that God will give you strength each day. She will be sadly missed.

Renee was one of a kind. She truly had a gift and passion for the elderly. She was their determined and tireless advocate, friend, comforter and dance partner - whatever it took to bring a smile to their faces. She also brought a lot of smiles and laughter to her co-workers with her fun-loving spirit. She will never be forgotten. I am thankful for the memories and blessed to have known her. Praying for the comfort that only God can provide for all of her family.

To all Renee's family members,
My heart breaks for you. Renee's light was so bright and so strong that it will live forever to all those who were fortunate enough to know her. Through my work in APS, I was often in contact with Renee. Each and every time I spoke with her, she made me laugh. Her extraordinary ability to make everyone feel blessed to be in her presence will transcend this world and make Heaven even more special. Please accept my deepest sympathy.

I am so shocked and heartbroken to hear this news. Renee was so good to my mother and my family, when she was a resident of Crestview. She loved my mom's spunky personality and they went round and round in fun and love every day. Mom adored her. She always made sure that we had everything we needed. It made our friendship special because she was a Sugar Grove girl, so we would see her at kids' events and BU stuff often. She always had a hug and a smile. She was the first one from Crestview to come and grieve with us after mom passed. I am so glad I was able to know this amazing lady. You will be missed. I am praying for you all during this difficult time.
