Mildred (“Mimmie”) was born Sept. 26, 1912, on the family farm near Huxley as the fourth child to John and Julia (Rullestad) Freeland. She married Herbert Reinertson on Dec. 18, 1941 in Papillion, Neb. The couple farmed until they retired in 1986. They enjoyed family fishing trips to Minnesota, winter vacations in Texas and Arizona and fall fishing trips to Ontario, Canada. In 1988, Mildred and Herb traveled to Norway with other family members, fulfilling their dream to visit the homeland of their parents and grandparents.

She is survived by her four children, Mary Jo (Larry) Lein of Kansas City, Mo.; Dennis (Kathy) Reinertson of Indianola; Lori (Brian) Carrel of Boone; and Carol (David) Schonhorst of Johnston. She also leaves one sister, Thelma Danilson of Boone, 10 grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren and nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Herbert, in 1993; two granddaughters; two brothers; and five sisters.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks memorials be made to Bethlehem Lutheran Church, Building Fund in Slater, Iowa or Israel Family Hospice House in Ames.
