Can't believe it's going on five years. Miss you Jeff, and all the great times we had at Raub and Union Terrace especially. You and your family welcomed me to Allentown with open, loving and accepting arms. I have not nor will I ever forget you. I will always cherish our shared love for baseball and football; the times we rooted for the Orioles and the battles between your Dolphins and my Jets. I really hope there is an afterlife and that I get to see you again.

November 12, 2017

To the Reimert family, my thoughts and prayers go out to your family.
I thoroughly enjoyed playing baseball and basketball at UT with Jeff and Richie. We had great times together. Jeff was the king of HORSE. I could never beat him..
I enjoyed our friendship and we had great times playing for his dad, Coach Reimert.
Years later, when I occasionally saw Jeff, we always reminisced about those times.
I will always remember him as being a big part of my childhood. He was always happy and full of life. I am shocked and saddened to hear of his passing, but will always have fond memories of him.
Rest in peace my friend,
Mike Bolza

Dear all of the Reimert family,

I was so saddened to hear of Jeffrey's passing, my memories of Jeff go way back to when we were small children. Jeff was my first boyfriend and we got married in the Krause's garage we were in like 5th grade we only ever held hands and when he gave me a ring I made him kiss me (that was the only time we kissed)I still have that ring. We were good friends through out school years. I would run into him occasionally and we would laugh. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the family and friends. He will be sorely missed.

My deepest sympathy goes to the Reimert family and extended family. My thoughts and prayers for strength and comfort are with you at this sad time.
Jeff and I met in elementary school at UT. I will always remember him playing basketball on the court across from the school and how very good he was, always with other kids watching as well. Since high school, I would see Jeff either at Giant or Weiss, at church or at the Centronia fire company
and have a chance to catch up with him. Jeff was always full of life and will be missed.

It is with an enormously heavy heart that I express my sincerest condolences to Diane and the entire Reimert Family. I am crushed in sadness. From Raub Jr High through Allen High up to now Jeff and I were friends. Even from the old days of the Allentown Playground System playing hoops, Franklin(Hammer and Sickle) vs Union Terrance, we shared a close friendship. Jeff's keen eye for the corner shots in basketball are legendary; his sharp wit and fast pace talking endearing! I am going to miss Jeff and keep his memories close in my heart.

Our hearts are heavy today over the loss of our friend Jeff. He was always kind spirited and love to make you laugh. Our nick name for Jeff while growing up was Bo Bo. Not sure if he loved that name but it stuck with me as I saw him throughout his life. I would always call him BO BO and with a chuckle and a smile he would answer.
My deepest sympathy for the entire Reimert family. May the memories of his life carry you through such a difficult time.
Hugs and kisses to all.

Dear Reimert Family,

So sorry for your loss. We remember Jeffrey and his family from the neighborhood, Union Terrace and Hersh's Market and growing up all through school. What a great family! He was always friendly serving at Hersh's and passing in the halls at school and loved to be at Union Terrace playing sports. Over the years, I ran into him at the steak shop, he always had a friendly word and smile. We shared the blessing of being from big families and always had something to reminisce about. May he Rest In Peace.
May you all be comforted by the love and memories you have shared.
