Irene Renner Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Irene Renner May 23, 1936- July 8, 2020. Irene Renner, aged 84, of Columbus, Ohio returned home to Jesus on Wednesday, July 8th, 2020 surrounded by her family after a brief illness. Irene is rejoining the love of her life, Gerald Renner. Also awaiting her at the pearly gates are her son Robert Renner, sister Barbara Wright, brother Robert Riggle, great-grandson Gabriel Fares, and her parents Geneva and Russel Riggle. Irene is survived by many multitudes of friends and family that love her, including her daughter Jeri Sphar (Keith), daughter-in-law Laura Renner, granddaughters Briana Renner (Eric), Rebecca Fares (Vincent), Kayla Renner (Nick), Tricia Renner (Ty), Sara Renner, Jennifer Dunlap (Zach) and great-grandchildren Arabella Fares, Liliana Fares and Andrew Arras. Irene's greatest love was her family, and to know Irene was to love her. Irene enjoyed many many things such as Buckeye football, spending warm summer days on her front porch, keeping the birds in her front yard well supplied with bird food, watching her great-children on their tree swing, her church, the Hallmark channel, and, above all else, her family. She was a renowned distributor of popsicles and peanut MandMs to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The love that Irene imparted to those that knew her will continue to create ripples in the minds of those that were lucky enough to know her long after her death. It did not take much to make her day, a call, a visit, a kiss and a hug. Her true joy in life was to make her family's lives better, and she was proud of all of them. It is once in a lifetime that a person meets someone that will stay with you in your heart forever, and Irene was that person. Irene's family is blessed that there is a part of her in each of us, that she gave to us and asked for nothing in return. Please join her family in celebrating her life at 12:00 Noon Monday, July 13, 2020 at Concordia Lutheran Church, 225 School House Lane, Columbus, where friends will be received after 10:00 a.m. Monday; interment Sunset Cemetery. Please observe social distance and wear a mask. Arrangements by Heart and Hope by Schoedinger; www.heartandhope.com. In lieu of flowers please send memorial donations in her honor to Concordia Lutheran Church.
