Kenneth L. Rinehart

Kenneth L. Rinehart, age 67, passed away peacefully with his brother and sister-in-law at his side on Sunday, September 7th after a long battle with diabetes and its numerous complications.

He graduated from Cuyahoga Falls High School and BGSU, becoming a middle school history teacher and coach in the Brookville school district in southwest Ohio. He cherished the memories of the students, teachers and staff at the school district and the Brookville community as a whole.
