Renee Wood founded Comfort Company in 2000. She is a social worker who lives with her husband and four daughters in Geneva, Illinois. She obtained a Masters Degree in Social Work from Florida State University in 1989. Her work experience includes working as a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit ( NICU ) social worker where she assisted families in dealing with the loss, or pending loss of a child. She later worked as a renal social worker, aiding patients with end-stage renal disease. She designed her first piece of memorial jewelry after the unexpected death of her sister-in-law's father. Unable to find a gift that expressed her feelings, Renee sketched a teardrop shaped pendant with a forget-me-not flower embedded in the design. She then had the pendant manufactured and penned a verse to go along with it. Late one night, while on the phone with her sister-in-law, the name of a business--The Comfort Company--was created. Our Mission: The mission of Comfort Company is to simplify the difficult process of expressing sympathy by offering a meaningful selection of non-traditional gifts designed to acknowledge loss rather than to minimize it.
