Not sure what to say?

Oh my gosh, I was just online searching google to refresh my memories of all the cool stuff that Mr Renn did and found that he has left us. My sympathies to all of the family and friends that knew him!!! I met him on a flight to Vegas, sitting in coach :). I thought he may have a couple bucks because he has super cool glasses on. I sparked up a conversation and we talked the whole way to Vegas. He was on his way home from speaking to the CEO;s of the 10 largest companies in the world....

I met and heard Renn speak at several TEC functions in the 1990s. Not a day goes by that I don't use some of his valuable wisdom in managing my business and living my life.
There will not be another like him.

Renn, on a personal and professional level, is the person I have admired the most during and after my 20 years working at Versatec. He is the essence of the renaissance man.

My sympathy's to Ree and the family.

My deepest sympathies to the Zaphiropoulos family.
Renn was both the President of a company I joined and a friend. I cannot think of anyone with whom I enjoyed working with more than him.
He was a man of great wisdom, energy and he had a compelling way of always making you the center of his attention.
I will miss him even though we haven't seen each other in over 20 years.

A delightful man I remember from my days at Versatec Ltd. in England. I had the good fortune to meet him on one or two occasion.It was a privilege to know him. He kindly sent us all a personal gift each Christmas. Bless him and his family.

Renn was the most amazing man I ever met. We had some common interests like cooking and woodwork. He was always an inspiration to me and never ceased to amaze me with his "steel trap" mind. While you were only beginning to digest the problem, he would be giving you the answer. I am a better man for having known him and will surely miss him. He was one of a kind. Our sincere condolences to his family.

My heart goes out to you and your family. His passing is a loss to both family and community. May we continue to honor such a fine man who contributed so much to so many.

Please accept our deepest condolences. Renn was an inspiration to young and old. For instance, we will never forget his speech to the Sterling Scholars of the first Canyon View High School graduation. Progressive!

Our deepest sympathies to Ree, Eve and Gale. We vividly remember the incredible times we spent with Renn and his family. Our thoughts are with you at this time.
