Renee was my sisters best friend growing up. She used to bathe me in our kitchen sink when I was a baby. She was my big sister growing up and taught me so much about the woman species. LOL I have many many awesome memories of both Linda (my sister)and Renee. I’m sure right now both Linda (my sister died 10 years ago) and Renee are reuniting in Heaven. I miss them both!! I visited with Renee last week on the phone and hung up with an I love you and for that I’m grateful.
Our family wants to express our condolences to you and your family. This is such a sad time and our love and prayers are with you all. Renee was such a loving mother to her children and grandchildren; she was so blessed! May your love and memories of your mom and the times you had together be with you always. We are here for all of you. God be with all of you!
I met Renee’ shortly after Denny passed away. He wanted her to buy herself a home, and I was the lucky lady that she contacted.
I knew within minutes of meeting her, that she was my kind of people.
We stayed in touch after she purchased her home, and I am so glad we did. Boy did she make me laugh, and me her. We were trouble together.
I know for a fact she loved and adored her children and grandchildren.
I also know that she is in heaven watching us all, and she would not want us to be sad, but the sadness comes from not getting to see her anymore.
I love you NaNa! And I will miss your wonderful spirit!
My prayers for your family and relatives at this time of sorrow. Renee was a school friend whom I met in junior high school at Mann and continued our school years at Abilene High. She had a bubbly personality and was always smiling. We went our separate ways after graduating high school but renewed our friendship on Facebook. She has a loving family and lots of friends who remember her and her laughter and smile. God and the angels in heaven rejoiced when Renee joined them up there!!! She will be greatly missed by all who knew her and I want to say that I am praying for you Colby and Meagan. God bless you and remember your momma will always be with you in your heart and with every sunrise and sunset and every rainbow you see in the sky.
Dear Family, I offer my deepest condolences for your devastating loss. May you be comforted by God’s loving promise to be reunited together again in the future Paradise. God is very aware of the pain and the many tears that you cry. Please be consoled by his loving promise at Acts 24:15. You’re in my prayers. (Revelation 21:4, 5)
Colby, I don’t know if you remember me because the last time we saw each other you were about 8. Your mom and I ran around together during the mid-80s. We shared some wonderful times that I truly cherish. I am so very sorry for you loss. As you know, Renee was a very special lady, and I was so thrilled to have reconnected with her in the last couple of years on Facebook. I am so very sorry for this tragic loss. Know that my thoughts are with all of you.

Renee was my cousin. Her parents, Clyde and Betty were my favorite uncle and aunt. They were so much fun to be around. Renee got that bubbling personality from them. She was so sweet. I baby sat her a lot when she was little. Over the years, though I live in Tulsa, it has been special to have blood kin who you love to talk to occasionally and just know she cared. I miss her something awful.–Danny Boatman
