Renee Sharon Stein

Mrs. Renee Sharon Stein (née Feuer) passed away peacefully, albeit all too soon, at home surrounded by her loved ones Tuesday, August 30, 2022. She was seventy-three. Renee was born in Bayonne, New Jersey on March 11, 1949, the daughter of Lillian and Martin Feuer. The second of four children, she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree from Jersey City State College in 1970 and would ultimately go on to become the full charge bookkeeper for Conway Auto Parts in Manahawkin, NJ, a position she held for 25 years. “I’ll give ‘em twenty-five years, but not a day more.” And so, she did. But Renee’s greatest accomplishments came not in her professional life, but her personal one. A loving and devoted wife, she married the love of her life Stephen on June 20, 1971, to whom she would remain wed for over fifty-one years. In that time, she would raise two sons to adulthood, and live long enough to bear witness to the arrival of four beautiful grandchildren. A woman of integrity, pride, and irreproachable ethic, Renee was the pillar upon whose shoulders her family rested. Hard-working, fearless, a straight-shooter, and whip smart, she suffered no fools, and always stood at the Stein family vanguard, protecting her children, her husband, and her home with ferocity when it was called for, generosity when it was never asked for, and wise counsel when no clear path forward was to be found. Those who knew her best will remember her as a lover of travel, especially if that travel involved some much-deserved beach time. They will remember the way she kept her home as spotless as a museum gallery. They will remember the smell of her cooking when family and friends gathered. They will remember her infectious laughter. And they will remember the way she hated having her picture taken, she refusing to believe when everyone else could see as plain as day her effortless smile, her welcoming gaze, and the light she brought with her into the lives of all those around her. Renee is survived by her husband Stephen; her sons, Nathaniel, and Ross; her grandchildren, Aviya, Asher, Levi, and Zev; her daughters-in-law, Yael, and Amy; her sisters Marianne and Barbara; her brother, Mark; her nieces, Lynn, Michelle, and Amanda; her nephew, Evan. Visitation will be held at 9:00 AM followed by services for Renee at 10:00 AM on Saturday, September 3, 2022, at Goldfinch Funeral Home, Carolina Forest 325 Hinson Ave, Myrtle Beach, SC 29579. Immediately following the service, Renee will be entombed in the mausoleum at Hillcrest Cemetery and Chapel in Conway, South Carolina. In lieu of flowers, Renee’s family would ask you to consider a donation to: Herma Heart Institute Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin www.chw.org
