Tell us about your family.
GABE REIHLE (44) I own Distinctive Woodworks, a custom carpentry business
that was started by my father, Don Reihle, forty-four years ago. I enjoy household
projects, playing guitar, and fishing at the neighborhood ponds.
JANET REIHLE (44) I am the executive director for the Flowood Chamber of
Commerce. I enjoy being outside with the kids, walking in the neighborhood,
and reading.
SILAS REIHLE (9) I am a 4th Grader at Flowood Elementary. I’m in the BETA
Club and math is my favorite subject. I play soccer with IFC, baseball with
Canes Baseball (formerly The Jackrabbits), and Futsal at F5.
IVAN REIHLE (6) I am a 1st Grader at Flowood Elementary in Mrs. Perkin’s class.
I’m really good at spelling. I play for the Yankees at Northwest Rankin –
NWRAA Baseball, and for the Cheetahs at NWRAA Soccer with Coach
Clint and Coach Brent.
How did you meet, and how long have
you been married?
JANET We have been married for 12 years,
although we are both terrible at anniversary
dates. We know we were engaged on 10/09/08 –
like a countdown.
GABE I met Janet at 5am when she worked at the
YMCA in Flowood. The first thing I ever said
to her was, “Can I have a basketball?”
Do you allow time to be with your spouse
for a date night?
GABE We do go out to dinner often – but as a
family. We really enjoy this time with our kids
and they have great taste in restaurants.
JANET We typically only have baseball nights,
soccer nights, or soccer/baseball nights and then
tournament weekends. Our best “date nights”
are when Gabe grills out and we stay up past the
kids’ bedtime on our patio.
