Rosalind A. “Rosie” Reinartz, 84, of Adams, Minnesota, passed away on Wednesday, March 6, 2019, surrounded by her family at the Adams Heath Care Center in Adams.

Rosalind Alvina was born Feb. 18, 1935, in Adams to Nordeen and Marion (Kirtz) Lewison.

Rosie was united in marriage to Nicholas Reinartz on June 12, 1956, at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Adams. Rosie and Nick raised their family and farmed in Adams Township in Mower County, Minnesota.

Rosie was active in her children’s lives and served many years as their 4-H leader. She was also a faithful member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church and the CCW. Together, Rosie and Nick served on the Mower County ADA Board of Directors. Rosie enjoyed her flower and vegetable gardens, canning, yard work, morning coffee and walks with her friends, playing 500 and bingo.
