She was born February 26, 1951, in Mobridge, South Dakota. Patricia was the oldest child of Francis James and Anna Marie (Holzer) Reinbold. She and her nine siblings were raised in Timber Lake, SD.
Patricia cherished spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren. She enjoyed baking and making crafts for gifting. She and Tom had an affinity for lighthouses and spent time traveling the country and touring these historic structures. Although she spent the early years with her family in New York and in Ohio for several decades, she always considered the prairie of South Dakota home.
A Catholic in faith, Patricia was a member of St. Joan of Arc Parish in Streetsboro. She belonged to the church’s Altar Rosary Society and assisted with the bereavement luncheons.
She met her beloved husband Thomas John Fletcher while they were in a math class in college. They married on August 29, 1970, and together raised four children: Jennifer (Shaun) Abney, Aaron (Sarah) Fletcher, Melissa Fletcher, and Hollis “Holly” Fletcher. Patricia is also survived by her grandchildren: Jordan and Allison Cooper, Hannah and Emily Daedelow, and Charlie and Sadie Fletcher, as well as her siblings: Fran (Colin) Milliken, Gene (Laurel) Reinbold, Tony (Linda) Reinbold, Robert (Jeannette) Reinbold, Ann (Roy) Crance, Nancy (Harvey) Oliver, Deb (Jan) Linderman, Mary (Tony) Anderson, and Joe (Lori) Reinbold, along with generations of loving nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents.
Her wishes for cremation are being honored, and a Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by Father Chris Luoni on Wednesday, October 9, 2019, at 10:00 AM at St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church, 8894 State Route 14, Streetsboro, Ohio 44241. A time of fellowship will follow. Her final resting place will be Timber Lake Cemetery after next year’s Reinbold Family Reunion.
