In sorting through Jack's vast oeuvre of paintings since he passed, I came across a wonderful oil portrait Jack did of Renee a while back. I would love to give it to the family if they are interested in having it. Please contact me at [email protected] to arrange if interested.

Sorry to learn of Renee's passing. We (my late husband Rod Wolfer, our daughter Deirdre and I) were friendly neighbors in North Beach back in the '70s and '80s. In love may she return again.

I met Renee in 2013. That was the year the California Historical Society asked me to use the diaries of Bridget and Denis Oliver, two emigrants from Ireland who lived in San Francisco in the mid-1800's, as the basis for a dramatic reading. Renee read the part of Bridget Oliver. Although the subject matter was challenging, Renee rose to the occasion and brought her warmth and empathy to bear. Renee's intuitive reading was a moving and memorable evocation of Bridget's life in San Francisco....
