Honorable
Herr Johann B. Reindl.
Much
deserved for the St. Vincent's de Paul parish has made himself the Honorable Herr Reindl. The same came here as the church property was
going on auction, under his caution and willpower he made it possible to
make the bankruptcy turn away.
The
Honorable Herr was born 14 Feb 1826 in Hohenkemnat in Bavaria. After
he absolved his theological studies, he was ordained to the priesthood on 8
Dec 1860. In the year 1885 the Honorable Herr celebrated his silver
priest Jubilee under great participation in the

church in Oshkosh. He gave the start to make , built the school bigger and
just in the middle of his work hit his farewell hour. His fate would take
him from his dear parish members. On 13 Dec. 1891 the bells of the

of the almighty, with this destiny great sorrow befell the hearts of the
parish children, and the same was from all in high grade
