Life is so short we sometimes neglect staying in touch with friends we had in our early school days. Rene's contribution to society did not go un-noticed by so many, he will truly be missed by all of his friends. Our hearts go out to his loving wife Joan and his brother Hugo.. Love Valerie and Ted Eckerson

Dear Joan, We are so very sad to hear about Rene, he was a fine man and we truly cared deeply for him. We were fortunate to have shared in a small part of his and your lives while living in Sarasota. Charlie admired Rene a great deal. Joan, you were a wonderful and caring wife and mother and we miss you very much. The Glynn's, Charlie, Leslie and Tara. Stuart Fl.

Joan, our hearts and prayers are with you during this time. Although you and Rene were new additions to our family (or should we say we were new additions to your family) he will be greatly missed. We know you will find comfort in knowing that he is in peace now as he knows that you have a lot of love and support here and one day knowing you will be reunited. In Christ - Steve, Nancy, & Reese Faust
