I pondered what to say about my Friend. We shared birthdays, secrets and lots of joy over the years. Even after I left Cincinnati we visited and shared in each other's lives. Renee's laughter and smile were infectious! My sincere condolences to her loving family.
I am so sorry to hear this. Such a sweet, sweet person. I met her in Classical Roots when I joined two years ago. She made me feel very welcomed to be there. She always had a smile and such a musical laugh. She's singing in the celestial choir now. She will be missed.

I was deeply saddened to hear about Renee's departure. I send my sincere condolences and prayers to all of her family and hope that each day will lessen their pain. I met Renee in the 7th grade at Walnut Hills High School. We were neighbors and great friends! We shared a lot of good times together and I am thankful for all of those wonderful reflections! Norma, her sister, often hung out with us too! Renee was a very warm and loving person, and her family always welcomed me in their home. Had I remained in Cincinnati, I am sure Renee and I would have still been in close contact. May she rest in eternal peace in Heaven.
The members of the Zion Baptist Church Praise Dance Ministry send our sincere condolences to the family of Marcia Renee Payne. Our ministry worked with the Glory Girls of Union Baptist Church while under Renee's leadership. She always shared her love for Christ to all of the young ladies and supported many of Zion's scholarship programs through the talents of the Glory Girls over the years. We were blessed to know Renee as our sister in Christ and as a Friend. We ask that the Lord continue to bless and comfort your family.
Yours in Christ,
Yvonne Crear and Fay Ogletree, Zion Baptist Church Praise Dance Ministry

So sorry to hear about Renee's Passing she was a dedicated member of Union Baptist church with the gift of singing and teaching young people about the bible. She was in many choirs and she will be missed because she worked hard in the various ministries of Union especially teaching the young people as her specialty. She will be missed but she is resting in peace in the Lords kingdom and we will see her again.in Heaven!!!From the Smith family

Condolences to the Family in the transition of Renee. Her smile always brightened up a room, remembered well through our days in the Youth Choir and at Walnut Hills High school. May her thoughtfulness remain on the minds of those she loved as a constant memory in times of need. Many Blessings
Condolences extended to the Payne and New Families in the passing of Renee. Her sudden transition this past weekend has truly shocked many. I first met Renee during my childhood, as we were both members of Bethlehem Baptist Church, but ironically became reacquainted in 2013 singing with Classical Roots Multicultural Community Choir. Oh my, a true beacon of light. I'm just speechless. Renee, you will be missed! Your smile and laughter.... Love you, my sister! Sing on! You're safe in His arms! Rest in Peace!

There are not enough words to express the sadness I feel. Renee and I became fast friends when we met at my first Classical roots rehearsal and concert. She had such an outgoing personality and people were easily drawn to her. We did so many fun things together. Renee was a beautiful spiritual person and lived her life giving and caring for others. Rest well Renee. Our loss is Heavens gain.
Love your friend Donna

As I posted recently Thursday night choir rehearsals are not going to be the same; it's going to be ruff knowing Renee is not going to be in her usual spot. To the family know that Lady Donna and I share in your grief; if there is anything we can do for you, please don't hesitate to call. We will miss you, Renee but God has you now in His heavenly choir. Blessing until we see you on the other side of eternity. Dea. Ernest&Lady Donna Norman.
