I’m thinking of Renee today and remembering her kindness and keen sense of humor that always brought a smile to my face. She had a wonderful way with her students as well. She was a special lady and great friend!❤️❤️❤️❤️

This image perfectly encapsulates all of the essence that I remember Reneé to be: always ready to have fun and always making sure her lipstick was looking right!  Most importantly, Reneé was kind and good to people. You can see that - with just a little sprinkle of mischief - here too. 

This photo is just about 19 years old; the beginning of my ENL teaching career. Reneé (along with her WFSD ESL cronies - Kathy and Phyllis!) took me under her wing during those challenging first years of teaching. She imparted many understandings to me, a lot of which I am only beginning to understand at this juncture of my career and life, and I genuinely look back on those formidable moments fondly.

As I am now well into my career and considered a “veteran teacher,” I hope I too will leave such warm impressions with the new teachers under my tutelage, just as Reneé did for me. 

Rest In Peace, Reneé.
My deepest condolences to the family.

It brings us such great sadness that our dear friend Renee has passed away.  At the same time, we will be forever grateful to have had this wonderful woman in our lives. 
Although we began as colleagues, she she became a special friend to all of us. This friendship spanned our entire careers and continued throughout retirement.  
Renee was generous, kind, and thoughtful. She never missed an opportunity to shower us with gifts or impart “words of wisdom”, of which she had many. She constantly made an effort to keep in touch and share in our families’ milestones. Renee was a person who always made you feel special.
In addition to the ESL department, Renee was greatly respected and admired by the rest of the William Floyd family. Her professionalism and dedication to her students always stood out.  She loved her job and was a fierce advocate for her students.
We will miss her “plethora” of information that she always imparted on us, both professionally and personally. She knew something about everything. We will miss her sense of humor and her laugh. How often she told jokes and couldn’t verbalize the punchline because she’d be laughing too hard to get the words out! We will miss everything about our dear friend, Renee.

We would like to express our deepest and sincerest condolences to Renee’s family.


Phyllis Coulter, Kathy Weitzel, Mariann Coogan

I will always remember Renee with her bright smile, good sense of humor and zest for life.  She had a twinkle in her eye and showed much compassion for others.   She loved her family.   Renee will be sorely missed  My deepest sympathy to her family.   Vivien Misshula

My beloved friend and long time colleague, Renee, was such a pleasure to know.  She always came to school with a smile on her face and a friendly greeting.  Renee was a dedicated professional and treated her students with dignity, respect and love.  She was always patient and kind and encouraged her students to do their best.  Renee was known for her wonderful sense of humor which brightened the work days of all her colleagues.  After we retired, Renee and I looked forward to getting together for dinner every so often.  She loved talking about her grandchildren and she would also reminisce about her students.  Renee was a true friend in every sense of the word.
I mourn the loss of this special lady.  I extend my sincere condolences to her family and thank them for sharing her with
everyone.
