I should probably get an account if I continue contributing to this conversation. But killing ren would naturally mess up the show, team jnpr even. the best thing they could do is find another voice actor that sounds similar to monty, and not saying it will be easy, ren barely had lines, but its probable that he will make more appearance in the future.

I'm 67.189.79.63.

Yes, Ren's death would impact the plot and be huge for JNPR, but frankly, Ren isn't that important of a character so far. Part of why I think that RT may not want to find a replacement VA is that Monty was their friend and having somebody replace him in some way may not sit well with them. It's not like this has happened to them before.
