Not sure what to say?

Renee you have been on my mind and in my thoughts lately. I was remembering how you demonstrated such grace through out your illness. Im so glad you are no longer in pain, but miss your bright smile.

I remember the day I met Renee at the age of 4 and let's say now it's been 30 years. I love Renee so much and she will be missed.The person I am today..I owe some of that to her. Msg:(Renee) I thank you for everything that you have done for me..I never had a chance to tell you. I love you Renee you will forever be in my heart!

Renee, my cousin, will be missed at all family gatherings from now on. I will be eternally grateful that she was chosen to be a part of our family. I know that God does not give us more than we can handle, however this loss will be greatly felt by many. Keith and kids know that many prayers are being said on your behalf. Hugs and Kisses.

Renee you are a truly beautiful person. I remember your sincerity, your giving soul, and your kindness. If I everyone could model a tenth of the love you possessed this world would not have any fears.

Few people in this world are as selfless and giving, not to mention perpetually cheerful even in the face of adversity, as Renee. She was an outstanding Toastmaster and flexible, kind and patient while training people at ASH. She was a lot of fun to be with and motivated those around her with her positive spirit. Renee was the essence of a good human being and I am glad to have known her.

Renee is a friend of mine even though I have not seen her in awhile. I use to work with her at the General Land Office in Austin. She came to visit me three times in New York City in the 26 years my husband and I have lived here. No matter what the occasion, time, or place she was always "real", which I always found soothing, something I could rely on. Renee has such an energy, a force, and I will find comfort in knowing what's real never dies. You are unrepeatable my friend.

Renee was a special woman, with a heart of gold and a contagious attitude and smile! You will be missed in this world. I am so glad you are at peace now.

May God give comfort and peace to the Atkinson family. Renee, we miss you here on Earth, but we celebrate with you in Eternity!

Her name should have been "JOY" as that is what she brought to everyone she touched.
