I WILL KEEP MY HEAD UP NOT ONLY FOR YOU BUT FOR OUR FAMILY AND MAY I SEE YOU IN ANOTHER LIFE YOU GO AND BE WITH MY SON BRIAN AND REST IN PARDISE. FROM YOUR BIG SISTER ANDREA AND NIECES TANISHA AND TAYLEN - HOUSTON, TX..


AS YOU LOVE ME

"LET THERE BE NO MOURNING WHEN I GO"

" FOREVER AND ALWAYS"

WHY ARE YOU CRYING? DO YOU THINK THAT I'M GONE?
I HAVEN'T LEFT YOU. I,M WHERE I BELONG.
ANYTIME YOU ARE LONELY, ANYTIME YOU ARE SAD,
ANYTIME THAT YOUR HEARTBREAKS,ANYTIME YOU ARE MAD-
ALLYOU HAVE TO DO IS CLOSE YOUR EYES AND I'LL BE THERE WITH YOU. YOU SEE THE WORLD MAY TAKE MY BODY, BUT THAT'S ALL THAT IT CAN DO.

WHEN JSUS DIED UPON THE CROSS, HE TOOK AWAY OUR SINS.
HE CONQUERED DEATH SO WE CAN LIVE IN HEAVEN WHERE LIFE BEGINS.
DON'T STOP THE MEMORY OF THE TIMES WE SHARED.
IT'S GOD'S WAY TO HELP YOU THROUGH.
TAKE TIME TO LAUGH WHEN LIFE GETS HARD, THE WAY WE USED TO DO !

A SMELL? A TOUCH? THE MORNING SUN? THEY ALL WILL HELP YOU SEE.
I'M STILL THERE. I NEVER LEFT. NOW SMILE ONCE MORE FOR ME.
LIVE EACH DAY . KEEP LOOKING UP. MY LIFE WAS NOT IN VAIN.
I FINISHED THE TASK I WAS BORN TO DO. THAT'S WHY I COULDN'T REMAIN.

UNTIL I SEE YOU - I LOVE YOU FOREVER AND ALWAYS

No words to discribe the pain we feel when our loved ones are taken, but know in your hearts that Renee is okay. She will be cared for and loved just as she was with you (her family). My prayers are with you all.

Darrius and Desiree, Dooney and Wendy, Patrick, Dennis, Gloria, Mike and Niki and those in the family who we've not met: Your dear mother, loving sister, precious daughter Renee is no longer with you, but watching over all from heaven.

We first met Renee and Dooney as teenagers years ago when her father and my sister married. I remember how she ran and laughed like a big kid with my sons and nieces and nephews and how she grew up overnight as she became a parent herself. (Boy did she love her two little babies!) What a lovely and loving girl.

My heart is broken for all of you because I know how much she's missed. But she is with the Lord now and we will all see her again one day. With His help, may the pain you feel be lessened over time. You're in our thoughts and prayers.

Love and Blessings to all of You!

You will always be remembered as our "other" daughter no matter what. I will always remember "Ms. Harris knows me." Lesley, Tara and TJ have always felt that you were family. To Inge and family, know that you were there for her and Doonie, even if she wouldn't admit it, you were her rock. I wish I could be there with you during this time of sorrow. Know that love never goes away, we take it with us wherever we go. Be at peace now Renee and rest yourself in the arms of Jesus. You will all be in my prayers, know that I am thinking of you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

My thoughts and prayers for Renee and her family. (class of 90)

November 1, 2010

It will be the little things that you will remember: the quiet moments, the smiles, and the laughter. And although it may seem hard right now, it will be the memories of these little things that help to push away the pain and bring the smiles back again. With heartfelt sympathy from Renee's cousins - the Robinson and Vazquez families (John, Juan, Karen, Shonna, Isa, Johna, and Heriberto II)

Dear Plear-Hollimon family,

No words can express how deeply saddened my family and I were to hear of your loss. Renee' will be truly missed by everyone who knew her. We got to stay in the same house for a little while. She always had a kind word, and encouraged me in many ways. She often invited me to sing to the twins when they restless as babies (we entertained them with our version of "right here" by SWV). She had a great laugh and a wonderful sense of humor. I am glad that I had the privilege of meeting her. As you grieve know that we are remembering you in our prayers and honoring her memory.

With sincere condolences,

Niki Newkirk and family

I will miss you my sister-n-law! You had the best personality ever! I will miss our long talks, laughs & sharing of memories! I will miss hearing you and Dooney go back and forth about who's ugly dogs were the ugliest and things like that. You truly had a loving heart for people! I know you are enjoying the comfort and peace that Jesus brings!
My heart aches because you are not physically here anymore, but rejoices because of where you have gone!
You will always be in our memories and in our hearts!
