So sorry to hear of Reinhold’s passing albeit peacefully. We lived on Howard at #28 and often enjoyed a chat with you when you and Reinhold were riding by with your bikes. Our boys were likely up to some crazy fun in our yard.
I always admired the lovely bond that you had with each other.
You are in our thoughts.
Best,
Andrea, Ryan and Tyler.
