Dolores Theresa Ubl, the daughter of William and Anna (Zeug) Ubl was born on May 30, 1933 in New Ulm. She attended the St. John’s Catholic School in Searles. On April 22, 1952 Dolores was united in marriage to Marvin H. Reinarts at the Holy Trinity Catholic Church in New Ulm. She had worked at Eibner’s Restaurant and Stork Brothers Produce before her marriage and continued for a period of time after her marriage. When her husband returned home from his military duties they moved to a farm in Cambria Township, Blue Earth County, and raised their family. After their children were grown Dolores went back into the workforce working at Dittrich Specialties up until the time of her illness. Dolores was a caring and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. Her enjoyments in life were spending time with her family at family get-togethers, tending to her flowers, gardening, the outdoors, cooking, baking, her special cat, Snowball, and her beautiful farm, which she so lovingly tended. She was a member of the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, the Christian Mothers Society, and the St. Elizabeth Society.
