Memorial Service: 11:00 am, Tuesday, October 15, 2013 at The Reformed Church of Bronxville
Gay Edwards Reetz, of Bronxville on October 10, 2013. Fifty-six years ago, Gay Reetz packed up four children, a St. Bernard and moved to Bronxville. Soon there were six, a large porch and a VW bus. A graduate of Elmira College, after raising her six, she earned a Master’s Degree from Manhattanville College, going on to teach in the Scarsdale Public Schools for over 30 years. Hundreds of children were touched by “The Gay Reetz Way”. A lifelong volunteer, she served her church, her village and her country on countless committees, councils and boards, a preceptor to her children and family at large. The lamp she lit still burns in the five children, 10 grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins and village she loved. “For God alone my soul waits in silence, from him comes my salvation.” A Memorial Service will be held at The Reformed Church of Bronxville on Tuesday October 15, 2013 at 11am. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to The Reformed Church of Bronxville or Jansen Hospice and Palliative Care.
