Read MoreI was so sorry to hear about Renee's passing. She was one of my neighbors in the apartments here. After she went into the hospital the last time, I kept hoping I'd hear that she was coming back home.
She was a dear person with a wonderful sense of humor. I will always miss her.

Leslie and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. Although I had not seen her in years, my memory of her easy smile and warm words for everyone will never be forgotten. She was one classy lady with a beautiful spirit. Although you and your brothers and sisters miss her terribly now, I can't help but think that she and your Dad are together again watching over all of you and smiling at the beautiful family they created. I hope your memories of the great times all of you...

Pam, Leslie, Amy & Neal - I was so sorry to read about your mom's death. I have the greatest memories of her-how she could make you laugh one minute and then give you the "look" that would let everyone know that she meant business. I know that you will miss her terribly but I know that she left a big part of her in each of you. You are in my hearts and prayers.

I am so stunned to learn of Renee's passing. I worked with her some years ago at James River Bank on J Clyde Morris Blvd. Everyday was a joy because Renee was so full of life and laughter. She kept me laughing and not only that was a very thoughtful and caring person. I will always remember her smile. She was a class act and a lovely lady.
