Rene Kathleen Stafford Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Rene Kathleen Stafford passed away on November 18th, 2021 at the age of 59. Born on July 9th, 1962 to the late Robert Edward Lee of Grasonville and the late Delores Watts of Preston. Rene grew up on the Eastern Shore and went to school in Grasonville. She later got her Associates Degree in Computer Science at Chesapeake College. Rene was a wonderfully bright and compassionate woman. She always looked for ways to help others, even when she had very little to give. She loved being a mom and looked out for everyone she could. She also never stopped learning. As a computer programmer in the 80’s, she loved keeping up with Apple products and new programming languages. Rene loved to cross-stitch and other small sewing projects. She was also an avid collector of books, particularly of Steven King novels and classic English literature. She always tried to grow flowers around the house, but didn’t always have the greenest thumb. Rene loved going to the beach and enjoying a margarita… or two. And many summers she would visit Ocean City just to sit on the boardwalk, watch the water, and enjoy Thrashers fries with a cold Coke. Along with her parents, Rene is predeceased by her brother, Daniel Lee. She is survived by her older brother, David Lee, and her daughter, Dreama Stafford. A visitation for Rene Kathleen Stafford will take place on Wednesday November 24th, 2021 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. EST followed by a memorial service beginning at 11:00 a.m. at Fellows, Helfenbein, & Newnam Funeral Home: 106 Shamrock Rd. Chester, MD 21619.
