Peggy A. Reinhard, 71, passed away peacefully at home on November 20, 2025, after a lengthy courageous battle with cancer.

Peggy spent the majority of her career at Schneider National where she worked in Customer Service. This is where she met the most amazing people that she would later consider family. Infact, this is where she met Tom. Peggy enjoyed her many travels across the United States with too many favorite places to choose from. But she especially enjoyed her many trips to Mackinac Island with Kristy, Tom and her granddaughters, Lillian and Kylie. She loved every minute spent with her two granddaughters, whether that was watching one of their many basketball games, family events, or just simply popping in on the weekends to share some fun. They always had so much fun playing jokes on each other. She loved being a mom and grandma the most. Peggy loved connecting with multiple family members and friends and could chat on the phone for hours, especially with her daughter.

Peggy is survived by her daughter, Kristy Bratz (Shane), Lillian Schafer, Kylie Schafer, and Tom Buschmann, who was the best travel buddy and supported her through her daily struggles. She is also survived by her brother, Dennis Aerts, Sr. (Penny) and family, and her Godchildren, Jessica Brenner and Jacob Blake and multiple aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.

Peggy is preceded in death by her parents, Bill and Bernice Aerts, brother Harvey, sister Alice, and nephew Justin Blake-Aerts.

Peggy wanted to send a special thank you for the amazing care she received from Dr. Tahsildar's team at Emplify Bellin Health, and Nurse Bethany and the team at Unity Hospice. She also wanted to thank her two adopted sisters, Barb Olejniczak and Barb Buschmann for their love, kindness, support, and humor.

Family and friends will be invited to share in the celebration of Peggy's life on Saturday, December 13, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. at The Rite Place, 1580 Bellevue St, Green Bay, WI 54311. There will be no funeral service. Thank you to all of her family and friends for your support over the years.
