Dear Sweet Renate,
What a wonderful human being you've always been and whose memories of compassion toward others and kindness exemplified the very best character traits there are, in my humble opinion! I wish to be like you in so many ways that I know would make you proud and to honor you. I miss you so and cherish all the wonderful memories of things we've done together and conversations we've had.
Soar with the angels.
I love you,
Tami

Mom, I miss you so much. I know you're flying with the angels and out of the pain you were in for the last couple of months. I love you, Angela

I have fond memories of Renate and her family visiting often during my childhood. My Mom and Renate would converse in German and the children would play together. I pray for her family and especially those who cared and comforted her. I will remember the "good" times and believe she is with the Lord, at peace.
