Rene Tellez Memorial Fund

Donation protected

Rene was a good, beautiful, loving, giving, kind man. We were blessed, truly blessed to have him in our lives.  He made us laugh and he made us cry. He was a true friend to us all, always willing to listen and to lend support.   Rene was the Real Deal!

Rene served his country in Viet Nam.  Rene loved animals and being of service to troubled teens.
Rene believed in Social Justice and was completing his Masters in Social Work at the time of his death.

Help us honor Rene with a beautiful memorial service and make it possible for his beloved sister Theresa to fly from Texas for the service.

Thank for your donation that will cover the costs of this memorial service,  airfare for Theresa, and a donation to his favorite charity ShortStop Program www.4lbbf.org.
The ShortStop Program benefits adolescent 1st time offenders.

Any donations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you from Rene's family and friends.
