Urban Florian Reinhart, aged 77, passed away on December 19, 2021 at the Dayton, V.A. Medical Center.
Urban grew up in Alvada, Ohio, son of Cyril and Mary Reinhart with three brothers, Vernon, Jacob, and Richard. He graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelors of Science in Agriculture. He would later go on to earn a Masters of Business Administration from Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University.
Urban was a 2nd Lt in the Army and fought in the Vietnam War as a pilot. He was flying a reconnaissance plane (Cessna 0-1/Bird Dog) when he was shot down. He was rescued but sustained serious injuries and earned a Purple Heart. He would later become a 100% disabled veteran.
He married Mary Ellen Corbett on March 16, 1973 and had three children together: Scott, Katie and Emily. He was the loving grandfather to five grandchildren: Nathan, Addie, Quinn, Zoey and Rhett.
Urban spent thousands of devoted hours to the Beavercreek Soccer Association. He nearly always had a smile on his face and it was not unusual to see him dressed up as Santa Claus at Christmas time. He is much loved and will be dearly missed.
Visitation will be Wednesday, December 29, 2021 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm at Newcomer Funeral Home (3380 Dayton-Xenia Road, Beavercreek, Ohio 45432). A funeral service will be held on Thursday, December 30, 2021 at 9:30 am at the funeral home. He will be laid to rest at the Dayton National Cemetery following the service.
