I can not believe Rennae has passed. She was such a good friend to me. I volunteered in her room when my son was in her 1st grade class. (WILLY GONZALEZ). Her friendship got me through some hard times. And I would run into her over that past years at the nail salon and we wod just chit chat away while getting pedicures.
Alan, Ryan and Conor. I am so sorry for your loss… she was an amazing, caring person.
