Our dearest friend Renee

It is with sadness that I write this post ~
Our dearest friend Renee has passed away and now she will be free from pain.
Her friendship and kindness will be missed so much, by so many.
Thank you for being an inspiration and your wonderful spirit and love you shared with us.
She will always be in our hearts ~ bless your heart dear Renee.

Love & hugs
Carolyn

    The saddest of days for many Carolyn. Renee was the same age as me, so her passing has given me much to reflect on. This family has been through so much in recent times, it seems so incredibly unfair.

    The family have been through so much in recent days and it does seem incredibly unfair.
    May they find comfort, knowing that Renee is now free from pain.

    Hugs
