Willie carried himself with incredible courage and dignity through recurrences of a relentless illness. He was born in Montevideo, Minnesota January 1, 1942. He graduated from his hometown high school in Appleton, Minnesota in 1960. He was married to his high school sweetheart Sharon Sandven in 1962. Willie earned his bachelor degree from Minnesota State University Moorhead and his master degree in Special Education from California State University Fullerton. He retired after a 35-year teaching career at Hacienda La Puente Unified School District and moved to Sun Lakes in 2003 with his wife Sharon.
Willie’s passions included a consistent and smooth swing on the golf course, sailing on the Pacific and the thrill of speed, lift and serenity flying with his co-pilot Sharon. Summers spent in Alaska including family, friends and FISH were enjoyed and shared for over 30 years.
Willie was pre-deceased by his parents Leslie William Reinmuth and Francis Bergman Reinmuth and by his niece Brenda Peterson.
He is survived by his wife Sharon; son Mark Reinmuth (Kelli); daughter Kristen Reinmuth; and sister Helen Bittman (Tom); grandchildren Leslie Reinmuth Delwiche (Wally); Lindsey Reinmuth; Eric Marty and Tim Marty.
Services will be held at 11:00AM on Monday, February 25 at Weaver Mortuary in Beaumont, California.
Blessed be his memory.
