Raised in Tribute:
$750.00On Monday, July 3, 2017 the world lost JoAnn Reinheimer and a family lost their "Ging". This Christmas we honor JoAnn by giving back, just as she gave to us for so many years.
Born January 17, 1931 in North Sewickley, Pennsylvania, JoAnn was the youngest daughter of Joseph and Belle Clark. She graduated with the Class of 1949 from Lincoln High School in Ellwood City, Pennsylvania, where she met her husband, Paul "Skip" Reinheimer. They celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary on May 23rd. Both Skip and JoAnn are long time members of Eastview United Methodist Church in Whitehall, and were especially active volunteers of the church's food pantry. JoAnn was a loving, devoted mother to her three girls ~ Kim (Ray Shearer), Kevan (Bill Given), and Kelli (Dave Wehrle). But, she found her true calling in her role as "Ging" to her grandchildren ~ Matthew and Peter Shearer, Andrew and Philip Given, Kelsey and Keaton "Max" Wehrle. Her blessings grew as her family grew to include Jennifer Andonian, Elizabeth, Marlowe, and Jude Given, and Meagan, Holden, and Gatsby "GB" Feeser. JoAnn is preceeded in death by her parents and sister, Nancy. In addition to her family above, she is survived by her sister, Doris Downs of New Castle, Pennsylvania, and many other much loved extended family and friends
