  1. PM, you have one of the biggest and kindest hearts on the planet. If I died tomorrow, I would hope that my friends would not feel guilty for letting time go by in between emails. Renee had such a generous heart and spirit. I can't help but notice that both she and Jerry were posting right up until the end and always thinking of others right to their last day. I am in awe of both of them.

  2. Marina, I can only echo what the others have said. Renee would not want for you to grieve so that your correspondence hasn't been as frequent. You know that. She knew that you were in the midst of a life change with a new job, and planning a new life. I just know that she was thrilled to be a part of the planning of your special day. Perhaps she knew that she wouldn't be here to "see" it all unfold. Life is too short for regrets. Take a moment to cry that your letters were fewer, but only a moment. And then rejoice that you had a special bond with a special person.

  3. Marina, I echo what everyone else has said. We are all still crying but I am sure Renee doesn't want us to. She was tremendously generous in her giving spirit. So, all TDKer's let us cry and greive today but tomorrow put big smiles on our faces knowing that we had the pleasure to have her as one of our littermates. She is pain free, with all of our fuzzybutts at the Rainbow Bridge, and I know in my heart Jerry was there to welcome her and introduce her to all that have left us. All of you mean so much to me!
    love,
    tinafish
    I still would like her mailing address. I would like to send Ron a christmas card.

  4. Renee might have been saying goodbye when she started this thread a week ago: http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/10689

    She shared her love and friendship with everyone on TDK. She will be so missed!

    Thank you for the link to the obituary, Jcat and CM.

  12. Just to give you a smile (perhaps). . .Renee's guestbook is 4 pages long now. I'm pretty sure all but one entry in it are TDKers.

  13. I too had a terrible nights sleep. Thank you for listing the link for Renee's Obit. I'd never seen a picture of her...wow..such a beautiful lady inside and out. I'm so happy to be able to sign her guestbook...I think it will help me with some of my healing. My heart and prayers go out to Renee's family both human and furr family. She was sooooo young and alive!!!! Dee said it well earlier..God has added an Angel to the Heavens.

  14. I just can't get over it... poor Ron (her husband) is alone now, they had nobody, they lived far from anyone. They loved each other dearly. She was devoted to him, he is now alone.
    I have two mails from her that will stay unanswered where she said that she missed me and wished me well...
    I wasn't there... I can't help from here...
    Just crying...

  16. Aw, Marina! *Passes tissues and offers shoulder*

  17. They didn't have friends, didn't need them, they had each other...
    And suddenly she found herself in TDK and she felt she suddenly had a family...

  18. PM, Sunday is Día de los Muertos...will that help?

    Posted 3 years ago by linda #

  19. PM, Renee was so happy for you and all that you have going on..She would never be upset over a couple letters..But since Ron is all alone, do you think he would like to hear from any of us..I would write to him from time to time, and I know many here would also..

    Posted 3 years ago by 2bpurring #

  20. Marina, you helped Renee by offering her your friendship while she lived. That is a huge gift! We could all do better at staying in touch with friends and family, but life happens. She absolutely knew you loved her and you know that she loved you.

    I'm sure it would be a comfort to Ron if you wrote him a note telling him what Renee meant to you and that you could see how completely she loved him. He would treasure any memories you might want to share with him.

    Cry because she is gone, dear one, not because you could have done more as her friend. {{{{hugs}}}}

  21. What is Dia de los Muertos?

    Posted 3 years ago by 2bpurring #

  22. We ARE family-- lurkers, regulars, everybody. My real life family is amazed at the lengths we go to here to meet up, to help each other and the furbabies out. This is what the Internet should be.

  23. Day of the Dead, 2b...it's a Mexican day to honor those who have passed during the year...Nov 1 is generally for children, Nov 2 is generally for adults...

  24. PM, you sweetheart, *every* offering is a sacrament.

    You gave Renee joy every time you shared a bit of your day.

    We all loved her for her happy outlook--a positive attitude so bright, it masked her pain right up to her passing. Claim that outlook for your own now. We all should, as a tribute to our friend.

    I'm stunned to know we won't see gentle Renee's posts. But if we listen closely, we'll still hear them.

  25. I agree Bellantara..I'm so grateful that God gave us the capability of reaching this time of the internet. With the vastness of the world's pain and sorrow, He knew we'd need families and love to reach across the miles for one another. Thank you my vast and distant family on TDK. I can't say how much you've all moved me, touched me. {{{family hug}}}

  26. Thanks Linda

  27. Here in Spain it's all saints day, we show respect to the dead...

    Posted 3 years ago by PipasMumSpain #

  28. That was well said Lisa, Renee's kindness and thoughtfulness is something for me to strive for.

    Posted 3 years ago by 2bpurring #

  29. I can't write any more... thank you all for the love you showed Cindy...
