Employee at Traditions.
Renate was a great woman who always made me smile. I will miss her dearly. Rest in peace always my friend.

Sending thoughts to the Gundermann family.

Renate was my mother's best friend, and a more faithful friend there could never be. Renate was always ready to lend a helping hand, selfless and giving to those she loved. She was a wonderful baker and a creator of beauty in her extraordinary flower garden. Renate was a devout soul, sustained by her daily devotions, and appreciated inspirational literature and wisdom from all religions. An avid reader, she kept current and was surprisingly well-informed on world events.
Together we...

Sad to hear of her passing my condolences to the whole family.

Bernie my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, my condolences on your loss. Her legacy will live on with you. We will have to celebrate her life next time we are at NNSY Bier Garden.
