After high school, Renette (along with her twin sister, Renee), moved to the Twin Cities and attended accounting school, where she received her certification. Renette was employed as various places, including the Mankato Free Press and the St. Peter Regional Treatment Center. Fiercely independent, she loved the outdoors, nature, wild life, and living in Grand Marais, MN. Renette also enjoyed spending time at the lake with her brother, Franklin, and sister-in-law, Burnett. This led her to move to Grand Marais and purchase a home on Lake Superior.

Memorials are preferred to the Brown County Humane Society.
