I am so sorry for your loss. Aunt Rena was a wonderful person. She will be greatly missed. I have fond "summertime" memories of Uncle Rob and Aunt Rena, going to their house was always a "good time"!!! I will never forget her famous chocolate cake!! She was one of the best! Again, I am sorry for your loss. You will be in my prayers.

Love, Traci
