REINHART -The death of Lauretta Reinhart, 93 years of Bethany Pioneer Village, Middle Lake occurred on Sunday, September 25, 2011. Lauretta was born on February 8, 1918 in the St. Benedict area to Anton and Mary (nee Hatzl) Reinhart. She grew up on the family farm and attended Rock Valley School. Lauretta and her older sister Lena helped their mother with the house work but also worked just as hard helping their father with the farming duties. They were kept busy each fall, stooking and hauling bundles to help with the threshing. Lauretta also enjoyed making patchwork quilts and doing fancy needlework. In the winter months, she often would do house cleaning and painting for other families in the area. Lauretta and a couple of her siblings lived and worked on the farm with her parents throughout their lives, continuing the farming lifestyle even after their parent's deaths. As she advanced in age, she eventually made her home at Bethany Pioneer Village in Middle Lake, first in Birch Manor and then a few years ago she moved over to Aspen Manor where she lived until the present time. Lauretta was the last surviving member of her family. She will be remembered by numerous nieces and nephews. Lauretta was predeceased by her parents, Anton and Mary Reinhart; and her 10 siblings: Lena, Joe, Oswald, Benedict, Frances, Nickalaus, Roman, Dora, Herman and Clara. The Funeral Mass for Lauretta was held on Saturday, October 1, 2011 at 2:30 p.m. at St. Benedict Roman Catholic Church, St. Benedict, celebrated by Fr. Denis Phaneuf. Interment followed in the St. Benedict R.C. Parish Cemetery. Memorial donations in Lauretta's memory may be made to Bethany Pioneer Village.
