Our co-worker and friend, Rene Cantu, was a gifted writer with a quiet, stoic personality – then, out of seemingly nowhere, his sense of humor would catch us completely off guard. We lost him, too early, in November 2020, the victim of a random act of violence. Our thoughts are with his family. And, as his "work family," we will continue to celebrate his kindness and team spirit, even as we mourn him. Rest in peace, Rene.
