Michelle Renee Grindstaff, age 54, passed away gently on October 19, 2026.

Born on April 15, 1972, Renee brought warmth, light, and a love for life’s simple pleasures to everyone who knew her.

Renee found true peace and happiness in nature. She spent countless hours outside tending to her flowers, creating beauty with her touch, and enjoyed quiet days at the lake. She was also a talented crafter who loved expressing her creativity through projects that brought joy to her and those around her.

Renee is survived by her loving parents, Don and Shirley Roland; her devoted daughters, Courtney and Shelby Grindstaff; her sisters, Lisa (Todd) Walker and Stephanie (Mike) Godfrey; and her brother, Kevin Roland. She will also be deeply missed by her nieces and nephews, Justin Lawing, Sierra (Kyle) Mayberry, and Levi (Grace) Godfrey, along with many extended family members and friends.

She was preceded in death by her first husband, Steve Rymer, and her beloved son, Hayden Rymer, with whom she is now peacefully reunited.

Renee's gentle spirit, creative heart, and love for her family will live on in the memories of all who loved her.
