Not sure what to say?

We are so sorry we all lost Renea. She was an inspiration to all that really knew her. She loved with all her heart ❤. She will be forever missed and in our hearts. Fly high Nea and sing loudly, for heaven sure did gain a special angel.

I so miss you and cannot believe that when I left for Florida it was the last time I would see you. I am shocked that I had to say goodbye until we meet again. I hope heaven is beautiful and your meeting up with Mom, Dad and Jeff was a nice reunion as we are missing you all down on earth! I love you sis and glad we became best sisters ever! I love you!! RIP pain and sickness free! ♥

Obituary

Gayle's Obituary

Renea leaves behind her husband Denny, his children Shelley and Matt, her father-in-law Chick, her sisters Vicky, Deanna, and Kim and her brother Kirk. She was a doting grandmother to Alex, Oscar, Anna, Gretchen, Will and great-granddaughter Elle. She cherished her loving and supportive group of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and countless friends.

And lest her wrath be felt, her cuddle buddy Grizzy was always held close to her heart during those afternoon naps.

Preceded in death by her parents Eileen and Gale Ochs, her brother Jeff, David Haskamp and mother-in-law Pat Haskamp.

She was Secretary-Treasurer of Ideas & Ad Ventures for 27 years and was proud to work in the printing industry.

As evidenced by the photo, her favorite day of the year was Halloween, the day before her birthday. She would pull out all the stops to make sure everyone she met would have a smile on their face.

In her 23-year fight with metastatic breast cancer she tried to help her fellow survivors with everyday struggles. One of her last texts read “I am determined to beat this illness and teach others about my experience and how important it is to stay positive and strong to overcome the odds.”

A Celebration of Renea’s Life will be held in the spring–when nature’s circle of life begins anew–on April 5 from 3:00-5:00 pm at the Green Twp. Senior Center. Casual attire please.
