Laughter, life and love are all qualities that aren’t seen as much as they are felt and shared with family and friends.  And that’s just what Paula Reinhart did until she passed away on Sunday, March 21, 2021 at the Westchester Medical Center from declining health.

Paula was born 51 years ago on January 24, 1970 in Troy, to Elizabeth (Hogan) and Paul Lohnes, Jr.

Paula possessed a Devilish humor and her mischievous antics were guaranteed to aggravate but always in fun and filled with her own brand of love.  Quiet moments of relaxation found her knitting, painting and lovingly caring for the beautiful flowers in her gardens. And she never missed a chance to find a lighthouse when traveling.  Similarly, Paula could be a beacon of light to those she loved most, amidst the darkness.  She treasured gatherings and barbeques with friends and family and gave as much of herself away helping others as she could.

Treasuring her love and memory forever are her husband: Glenn Reinhart, whom she married on August 13, 1994; her children: Cayla (Floyd) Lamont, Briar (Ashley) Reinhart, Angelina Reinhart, Dylan Reinhart; her parents: Elizabeth and Paul Lohnes, Jr; her sisters: Michele (William) Crabill, Cassandra (Timothy) Wooley, Tanya Lohnes (Miguel); her brothers: Paul (Tammy) Lohnes, III, Timothy Scala (Denise); many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.

Paula’s wishes were for cremation and her family will hold a celebration of her life at their convenience. Coltrain Funeral Home, LLC of Middleburgh is honored to be caring for Paula and her family.
