Renee was a bright soul who never required anything from those around her. She loved to bearound people, especially her family. She loved to be on the back of a Harley Davidson andalways finished what she started. She was persistent, diligent and the cleanliest person youwould ever know. You could always find her in the kitchen, whether it was cooking, baking orwiping down the counters. She enjoyed volleyball, softball, the Boston Red Sox and NewOrleans Saints. Every Sunday for years she would gather her sons (including those she justcalled her sons), their friends, girlfriends and kids, for an amazing homemade dinner and keptour family close.

She was an accomplished chef, her cooking and generosity brought entirecommunities together. More recently, Renee adored spending time with her 4 month oldgranddaughter, Rosalie, who will miss her dearly. She loved to cuddle with Copper(Fat Boy) andNarlz(baby doggie). She was tough, independent and fierce but also had a warming smile andcaring demeanor. She was your quintessential “Football Mom”, at every practice, every gameand always involved in helping the team in any way. She was a loving wife that always took careof her husband and she lived and breathed for her 3 sons. This loss leaves a gaping hole in thehearts of her loved ones. Renee was a strong willed woman and the matriarch of our family, sheloved deeply. We will miss our Mom, daughter, sister, grandmother, aunt and wife more thanwords can truly describe but we will stay strong and together, like she would have wanted. Weall Love you and will miss you forever. Rest in Peace.
