Born March 1, 1965 in Harvey, Illinois, she was the youngest of five children born to Laurin Ray and Rita Adele Blasier.
Renee, along with her family, grew up in Wilmington, Illinois, and graduated from Wilmington High School in 1983. She pursued a career in nursing and became a traveling Registered Nurse working in Intensive Care Units across the country. She ultimately landed in San Diego, California, and enjoyed the area so much she opted to quit traveling and reside there. She eventually found her way to Texas in 2018, to be closer to family and settled in Waco, Texas.
Renee was an avid animal lover and often went to pet stores and animal shelters just to visit them and provide comfort. She loved tennis and followed the sport closely. Renee also enjoyed the outdoors; hiking, kayaking, and camping.
