Reinhard died early Friday and was laid to rest Sunday in Herzliya, near Tel Aviv, her son, Sasha Weitman, confirmed.
She was one of 1,200 Jews saved by German businessman Schindler after he bribed Nazi authorities to let him keep them as workers in his factories. The account was made into the Oscar-winning 1993 film Schindler’s List by director Steven Spielberg.
