And then she met her soul mate 20+ years ago, only to finally be married September 10, 2010; to Clarence Wagner. She loved him dearly and he her. They shared a whole life in only 14 short months of matrimony before her passing. Renee lived virtually her entire life in the Seattle metro area. She attended West Seattle High School and over the years lived in Beverly Park, Burien, Kent, White Center, West Seattle, Lynwood and finally Auburn. She loved the Seattle area. She made many friends and had hundreds of relatives in the Region and will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
