WILLIAM DEAN REIHE
AUGUST 27, 1949 - January 22, 2023
William "Bill" Reihe of Blaine, Minnesota passed away last Sunday at the Veterans Hospital in Minneapolis from a bad case of phenomena that overtook his lungs! When Bill went home very peacefully, he was surrounded by his family that he loved dearly.
Bill was born in Watertown, South Dakota and lived most of his life in the Minneapolis area. Right after High School, Bill served his country in Vietnam and drove a light tank with twin 40MM cannons. Bill had a great passion for cars especially fast cars! Bill enjoyed his Road Runner and the time spent in fellowship with other car enthusiasts!
Bill is survived by his wife, Cathy Jo married 39 year; children, Todd (Jennifer) Reihe and Dawn (Eric) Rush; granddaughters, Makayla and Makendra Rush; brother, Denny (Rose) Reihe; sisters, Kim (Keith) Wilson and Debby Soj; and many wonderful nieces and nephews.

Bill will be buried in the Greenlawn Cemetery by Verndale, Minnesota on Wednesday May 24, 2023.

One day I may die
Without saying goodbye to you
But I will never forget
To say thank you
Because you hold the
Loveliest part of my life.

"Bill was such a wonderful person who had a great sense of humor and showed kind and compassion to everyone. My heart goes out to the entire family, especially for his wife Cathy. May he Rest In Peace with God and know that he has left such an amazing imprint on all those who had the pleasure of meeting him. With love, Kaia. "
