Gilbert D. Reinwand, age 92, passed away peacefully on May 15, 2024 at his home with his daughter's by his side.

A Mass of Christian Burial will honor his life at 10:30 am on Tuesday, May 21, at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Marshfield, led by Father Nathan. He will then be laid to rest at Gate of Heaven Cemetery, Marshfield. Prior to the service, a visitation for friends and family will be held at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, starting from 9:00 am.

Gilbert graced the world with his presence on April 30, 1932, in Loyal, WI, born to Earl and Florence Reinwand. In 1952, he graduated from Loyal High School. His life intertwined with that of Bernadine Winker, whom he lovingly wed at Sacred Heart in 1956; she peacefully departed in 2012.

Throughout his journey, Gilbert engaged in various occupations, many of which found him laboring with Garber's. A devout Catholic, he dedicated himself to his faith and held a cherished membership with the Knights of Columbus. His hands possessed the skill to mend anything from small engines to automobiles. Gilbert found joy in attending Polka masses during his travels and delighted in the art of song.

He is survived by his children, Andrew Reinwand of Granton, Timothy Reinwand of Stevens Point, Richard (Michelle) Reinwand of Wisconsin Rapids, Terry Reinwand of Wisconsin Rapids, Dominic Reinwand of Wisconsin Rapids, Jalaine (Mathew) Britton of Wisconsin Rapids, Christopher (Diane) Reinwand of Custer and Valerie (Victor) Kedrowski of Stevens Point. He is further survived by many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents and all his siblings.
