Renee was a light and a joy and she had a way with people that was nothing less than masterful! She got so much more out of giving and doing for others than most of us will ever experience in our own lives. I'm missing my big cousin and remembering you all lost a mother

Kim and family,
We are so sorry to hear about Renate. Our thoughts and prayers are with you through these difficult times. I thought you might appreciate the photos, as I'm sure you have not seen them. One is from a 1977 camping trip to Sherkston, and the second is from a Labor Day Party at my house on Seneca Street in 1980. Always remember the good times............Tony and Marlene Lombardo
