Renee attended Our Lady of Angels Church all her life, where she received First Holy Communion, Confession and Confirmation. She was also an Usher at the 4 pm Mass every Saturday.
Renee was a very caring person who would do anything for anyone at any time. She had some precarious ways about her, but everyone still loved "Aunt Ney". She loved her animals and pets, especially her dog and cat.
