Kim, I was a chidhood friend of Rene's and just recently found out that he was living in Forsyth, not far from me. I live with my wife in Fernandina Beach, FL near Jacksonville. I just found out about Rene's passing when I was trying to locate him through the internet. I want to express my sorrow and sympathy to you. He was one of my best friends in chidhood though I was 4 years older. We both lived in Pine Terrace, a small subdivision in Winter Haven, FL. If you ever get in the Fernandina Beach area and need a tour guide, feel free to call on us. Keith and Jennifer Broussard ([email protected])
