Reiner A. Mayer, born in Bamberg, Germany on May 3, 1937, passed
January 24, 2019 surrounded by his loved ones in Lake Havasu City,
Arizona. He emigrated to the U.S.A. in 1959 from Canada and served in
the U.S. Army for three years, honorably discharged in 1966. He met
Diane Howley in 1967 and they spent 51 years together in partnership
and business.

Reiner was a man of many talents; an engineer who could fix anything
and worked at many varied jobs. He and Diane were owners and operators
of several motels until they retired to Lake Havasu in 1978. A world
traveler, he was known as "Mister Twinkle Toes" on the dance floor and
a great storyteller and jokester. He leaves behind the love of his
life, Diane; children, son Bryan Mayer and daughter Leslie Mayer;
brother-in-law David Miller and wife Mary; and sister-in-law Bonnie
Miller of Paris, France. Three grandchildren and many friends and
relatives live here and in Germany. Upon his request, there will be no
services.

Thanks to the many relatives and friends who paid visits and made many
phone calls while he was ill. A special thanks to the Havasu Veteran
Affairs clinic and Beacon of Hope Hospice for thee caring of this
special man. Donations can be made in his name to those organizations
plus to prostate cancer research.
