  • Notes 
    • REIST, Howard S. 1917 - 2014 Howard and Aleda, you could hardly say one name without the other, after all they had been married since 1949. Having a visit with them was like being involved in two conversations at the same time, the one you were having with them, and the one they were having between themselves as they sorted out the accuracy of the facts. Was Howard a farmer, a carpenter or a school custodian? Yes! All of those things. Yet as much as he understood the practical side of life, it was more about the people who benefited from his efforts. They loved to welcome people to their humble home. Howard S. Reist, June 22, 1917 - February 26, 2014, born, raised, lived in the Floradale area. Son to Irwin and Ida Reist. Brother to Gertrude and Helen. All predeceased. Survived by his lovely wife Aleda (Martin). Cremation has taken place. The memorial service is at the Kingdom Hall, 126 Barnswallow Drive, Elmira on Sunday, March 2, 2014 at 2: 30 p.m. Arrangements entrusted to the Dreisinger Funeral Home, Elmira. www.dreisingerfuneralhome.com.
