Dearest Tom, Wendi, and Lori,
I was so deeply saddened to hear of Renee's passing. She touched my life (as you know) so profoundly and forever. To say she was amazing is such a huge understatement, she was a force of nature, a marvelous teacher. You are all in my prayers and the Hope in Christ is we shall all be together once again.....with much love, Vivian and Joe Rademacher

Tom,
You are Renee were very special, kind, and thoughtful people. She is truly resting in her Savior's arms now and I hope that HE comforts you and your family knowing that truth. She will be remembered as the wonderful warm person that brightened up an entire room!

My good friend, The stars in heaven will surely glow brighter with you there. You may have cringed whenever I had an idea...but you were always game to try something new... always there to forgive the mistakes, to listen to the heartbreaks, to brighten the long hours, to share laughter and praise success, to shop til we dropped, and most of all, to live our lives to the fullest...filling every single minute with the joy and the determination to give it all the best we had to give. What energy! The angels will have to wear track shoes to keep up with you. Thank you, my friend, for countless crazy and wonderful memories. I treasure our great times, respected you as a person and sure do hope to see you up there.. I'll bring my track shoes!!! Biggie (Pam)

I always told her she was the best person I knew on this earth, and if I could be more like her, I would be so much better. I know I will see her again, and that is comforting, but for right now, a huge hole in the hearts of Mario and I for the loss of Renee, my other mother.
A candle for you like the ones you always had me light! We will all get back together in Milwaukee to share our cherished memories of you with tears and laughter. Eat more!
We will always love you,
Karen and Mario

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Renee. She was a wonderful person with terrific personality and enthusiasm for life. I know how rough this will be for all of you having lost my father 4 months ago. My prayers and thoughts go out to each and every one of you. She is smiling down at each of you knowing she is pain free and walking hand in had with the Lord.

Live in faith,

Sara
