Renee Bean

A Tribute to Renee BeanShe was a tower of strength to everyone that she encountered. Born in Key West Florida to a loving Louisiana family. After her father's service in the Navy they lived in Shreveport Louisiana. They moved to Little Rock when Renee was 12 years old. She did very well in school (She used the term "she was a numbers girl".) She took ten years of piano lessons and played in several recitals. She worked at a variety of jobs including modeling for an ad agency. Working in the insurance industry for a number of years afforded her an opportunity to travel the world. But her true passion was interior design which she studied every chance she got. Many of her clients became lifelong friends after getting to know Renee. Her uplifting attitude and her vast knowledge of interior design was her strength. After her retirement she still helped friends and family with ideas and support. Also, ball room dancing was another passion of hers.She was preceded in death by her sister Brigitte Rucker of Fort Worth TexasHer family includesHusband - Edward BeanMother and FatherFrank and Juanita SlackSister - Susan MaGee (Don)Daughter - Angela Reynolds (Joel)Grand childrenGabriel Reynolds (Jacklyn)Griffin ReynoldsMegan Spriggs Arrangements by Smith North Little Rock Funeral Home, 1921 Main St, North Little Rock, AR 72114, 501-758-1170.--
