Renee worked at the Conference Center at South Suburban College and she was a very conscientious, dependable, team player and had excellent skills. I remember her having beautiful long hair which she cut short one day and if I remember it right it was so her hair could help someone who had cancer. She started growing her hair long again the very next day. I was so impressed by that gesture. Renee was always so proud of Tina and Tim and I feel so sad for them loosing both parents at such a young age. What an awful thing for her to have lost her husband so young. I am so saddened to think that Renee won’t get to experience all the milestone of her granddaughters and future grandchildren. She was a beautiful person with a beautiful soul and I know she will be missed by many. Rest In Peace sweet Renee
