Read MorePam,Beth and Caroline - I remember your mom fondly from when we were kids, lunch at Granny's house and birthday parties at the ranch. She was always funny and animated when she told stories. You all are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

My heartfelt condolences to Pam, Beth and Caroline during this time of loss and grief. Your mother was one of a kind, and was so fun to be around. Her generosity and hospitality, not to mention her gourmet meals for large groups, are such special memories for me and many others.

I was so sad to hear of Rene's passing. She was such a good friend all through elementary to high school in Fort Worth. I last saw her in 1962 while my wife and I were in Las Vegas.

My condolences to her family.
