He was the devoted son of the late Antonio and Nicolina Renzi; the beloved brother of his dear sister, Sue, who most recently preceded him in death; loving brother-in-law to the late Fulvio DeAngelis; and caring uncle to the late Michael Kubiak. He is survived by his nephew, Robert (Diana) DeAngelis, of Pittsburgh; and niece, Irma (Michael) Kubiak, of Philadelphia; his two great-nephews, Robert Jr. and Anthony DeAngelis; and his two great-nieces, Kate Kubiak and Kirsten (Brian) Cheney. He was a member of Mt. Carmel Baptist Church in Mt. Pleasant. Following his discharge from the Army, he worked as a hairdresser while he attended college at night to pursue his dream of becoming a teacher. Senor Renzi, as he was fondly known to his students, previously taught in West Newton, and became the Spanish teacher at Yough High School in Herminie for 31 years. He also had taught Spanish at WCCC in Youngwood for many years. Senor ran the prom committee and the Spanish studies abroad programs, spending countless hours with the students, helping them fundraise and then chaperoning them while they enjoyed these memorable events that he helped them make possible. He treasured his family, students and friends, together with his beloved animals. He grew crops and vegetables to feed his animals and to share his bounty with his friends. He will be dearly missed and remembered fondly by all who knew him for his humor and generosity.
