Barbara Ann Oppenheim Reinhardt was born in Detroit, Michigan, to the late Milton and Esther (Litchard) Oppenheim. She was raised in South Euclid and University Heights, Ohio. Barbara graduated from Andrews School for Girls in Willoughby, Ohio, in 1963, where she was the Senior Class Treasurer. On March 14, 1964, she married Noel Deshay Reinhardt in Cleveland, Ohio. The couple moved west and eventually settled in Las Vegas, Nevada where they raised their family. Barbara worked as a legal secretary and paralegal. Following Noel's passing, Barbara returned to Ohio in 1997 to be closer to her two older sisters. Barbara is survived by her daughter, Leona Deshay (Randy), and son, Gregory Reinhardt. She is also survived by her sisters Donna Mehok of Lakewood, Ohio and Lorna Oppenheim of Houston, Texas; nephews George and Matthew Mehok, Michael Scott; niece Kathleen Scott; and great-nieces Sophia, Claire, Lilly, and Annalise Mehok. She was preceded in death by her sister Susan Oppenheim of Fairborn, Ohio. Barbara was steadfast in her faith in God and firmly believed in eternal life. She was deeply loved for her loyalty to family and friends, as well as for her kindness and generosity toward others. A talented individual, Barbara enjoyed various hobbies, including Tole painting, calligraphy, hand sewing, studying Asian culture, quilling, and creating cloth dolls. She actively participated in many events with the Doll Gatherers group in Aurora, Ohio. An animal lover at heart, Barbara had a special devotion to her dogs, who were always well-trained and lovingly cared for. She will be missed and forever remembered. www.ZMFH.com Zeis-McGreevey Funeral Home and Cremation Service
