A great healer of Longhorn athletes, Dr, Joe Reneau, has passed away

Billy,

Dr. Reneau’s struggle is over. His daughter, Kathy, and I were at his side this afternoon after the Hospice nurse called his time was near, and each of us had time alone to talk to him, share stories, and say goodbye feeling he could hear us. I sang him our song and though his eyes were closed and breathing shallow, tears ran down his cheeks, so felt he was aware I was there.

We are planning a Celebration of Life hopefully Friday at Hyde Park Baptist Church, but I won’t know until tomorrow if the minister and Cook Walden Funeral Home on North Lamar can arrange it for us on that date. The church has been having services with separation of pews taking all safety measures for those who can attend, and I’ve requested they stream it live for us on their website www.hpbc.org as well. I wanted you to know.

Thank you,

Dena Reneau
