What should have been a joyful birthday for Renee Nicole Good’s older sister has become a date her family will always carry with pain. From now on, that day will forever be linked to the moment they lost Renee — a loss that changed their family forever.
Renee was 37 years old. To those who loved her, she was not a name in a story or a moment in time. She was a devoted mother and a gentle presence who shaped her children’s lives with quiet love. She leaves behind three children — two teenagers and a 6-year-old boy — who were the heart of everything she did.
That morning began like any other. Renee dropped her youngest child off at school, doing what she always did — showing care, responsibility, and love. It was a simple routine, never meant to be a goodbye. Hours later, her family learned her child was still at school, waiting for a mother who would never come back.
Renee was raised with strong faith and a deep sense of kindness. She loved music and language, and she followed that love into writing, earning a degree in English in 2020. Her poetry reflected her soul — gentle, thoughtful, and filled with emotion.
Those closest to her describe Renee as calm and soft-spoken, someone who avoided conflict and lived for her family. After losing her husband in 2023, she leaned on her parents and slowly rebuilt her life, staying strong for her children. Her parents say caring for others was simply who Renee was — something she did every day without ever needing recognition.
