Rene Hembree Obituary

Rene passed away at the age of 45 on August 5, 2013 in Lake Havasu City, AZ. She was born in Encino, CA to Jean and Bill Hembree and grew up in Simi Valley, CA. Rene was a gifted athlete and was very active in soccer and track and field at Simi Valley High School and Moorpark Community College. She was also an avid and loyal fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rene moved to Lake Havasu in 2004. Recently she was so happy with her new profession as a Certified Nursing Assistant at Havasu Regional Medical Center, and all her friends and family were very proud of this latest accomplishment. Rene is survived by her devoted mother, Jean Hembree of Lake Havasu City; her loving companion Ed Schulz of Lake Havasu City; half-sisters, Patty (Michael) Jenkins of Chattanooga, TN and Karen (Nelson) Burkhardt of Vermillion, OH; half-brother Steve (Shawnda) Hembree and their children, Isaac and Madalyn, of Chatanooga, TN; an uncle, Jay Hembree of Camarillo, CA; her 3 beloved dogs, Symphony, Concerto and Tracy and many cousins and friends who will all miss her. Rene was preceded in death by her father, Bill and her brother, Joey Dale. There will be no services; however, Renes family has requested that donations can be sent in Renes memory to Western Arizona Humane Society, 1100 Empire Dr, Lake Havasu City, AZ 86403. Renes ashes will be buried in Camarillo, CA at a later date. Thoughts and condolences can be sent to Renes family at www.lietz-frazefuneralhome.com Arrangements were placed under the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home and Crematory.

Oh Rene. It's tough when we lose a "family member." Gone but never forgotten. Thank you for some funny memories.

My thoughts and prayers to the Hembree family. Rene was such a bundle of life, laughter and compassion to all who were blessed to have known her. I still remember all of us girls on Bellwoods play ground, almost like it was yesterday. Rene taught us girls, we didn't have to stand off to the sidelines and not be a competitor, whether it was in athletics or life... She had fierce strengths. Thank you Rene, for the time shared, things learned, the many laughs growing up and the memories I'll cherish of you. Take care and GB, until we meet again.

There is and always will be only one Rene. Her presence was always known if you were anywhere near her, so effervescent and well, not quiet. The world will be more subdued and lonely without Rene. Bet she is cheering some team or hitting it out of the big park in the sky. Love you Rene, Jean and Ed. Our heartfelt condolences...
