Renate Walser was born in Montana, and spent many of her childhood years here in Hamilton. Work took her and her husband to Washington, where they raised their family. After retirement, they decided to move back to Hamilton.  Renate wanted a job with a purpose and RCVSC was a natural choice.  Her father was an Army veteran and experienced how helpful the VA and veteran services are and wanted to be part of it!
