In Loving Memory: G. Renee Getreu
It is with great sadness that we share that G. Renee Getreu, JEDI Co-Founder and WBC Consultant passed away Saturday with her family beside her.
Renee was a remarkable woman whom we had the privilege of knowing as a Friend, a Mother, and a Colleague. She cared deeply about her family, her friends, and the communities she lived in.
Catherine Preus recently shared at our Silver Anniversary celebration, “Renee created an extraordinarily fertile ground for learning with her infinite patience, her smile and understanding laughter --- her genuine delight in sharing in our triumphs, offering creative input to each person's unique service or product, acknowledging any effort, no matter how small, always lifting us up with her encouragement when we stumbled, always helping us to see ourselves and our challenges with compassion and resilience. She helped us understand that dealing with the financial aspects of our lives was the bottom line as to whether we prospered or not.”
Our organization and our community deeply feel Renee's passing. May you rest in peace and sing with the angels, Renee.
Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day.
Unheard but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear.
