René was a complete angel on Earth, welcoming and loving everyone that came into her life. Everyone that had the opportunity to know her loved her, her quick wit, and her sense of humor that continued all the way through her final days in this physical life.

She graduated from Ogden High School in 1968. She worked for First Security Bank in the trust department for many years.
She loved to dance, and she loved Elvis. She would dance around the house with a broom while she was cleaning to any oldie’s song. She was so dang cute!
She married Joseph Rex Shultz on June 17, 1969. They just celebrated 55 years of marriage. Joe was her best companion, and took such good care of her, especially the last 12 years after he retired.
