Alta Faye Renfrow, our sweet mama, passed away January 30, 2025, at the age of 74. She was born to Carl and Mary Dunlap on March 4, 1950 in Fresno, California.
She was a loving mom to seven children that were her pride and joy. She spent many years selflessly caring for her loved ones. Photography and oil painting were a passion of hers; she created beautiful artwork. Her ingenuity and ability to fix things were amazing, whether it be replacing brakes on the car or repairing a broken dryer, she got the job done.
In her later years, after being diagnosed with dementia, she spent time with each of her children and filled their lives with joy with her silliness and sweet gestures. She became childlike and would compliment and hug everyone in sight, she wanted everyone to feel special and loved. Though we are sad that she is no longer with us, we are happy that she is finally reunited with the love of her life, Vernon.
Alta was preceded in death by her loving husband, Vernon Dean Renfrow and her eldest daughter Davona Kay Martinez. She is survived by her children, Rodney (Ellie) Wilson, Krista (Sam) Boyle, Christopher (Melissa) Renfrow, Anthony (Danijela) Martinez, Destini (Mike) Furlong, and Karla (Bryan) Bigelow. Her 18 grandchildren, one great grandchild and many nieces and nephews. She was loved and will be dearly missed.
