Family and Friends, first and foremost, thank you all for your outpouring of love, kindness, and generosity towards our family during the past year and a half of Rene's illness. It is with a heavy heart that I had to announce the passing of Rene on Thursday January 18, 2024. I am preparing to have Rene cremated and a small viewing service for Rene. If you are able to assist me with the funeral cost, I would be forever grateful. I do understand that this is a large ask and please do not feel obligated at all. Rene would have never wanted to be fussed over, that was not the type of man he was. I do appreciate your consideration in helping us give Rene a proper memorial and then back home to us where he can finally rest in peace. As always, God Bless you! Love, Kristen and Oliver
