They celebrated their 70th Wedding Anniversary in 2018. They were the parents of four children, who were raised in Victor in a big house on water tower hill. Carl spent most of his lifetime affiliated with the family business, Rhineharts. He started working for his father at a young age. In 1950, Rhineharts pioneered highway erosion control for the Iowa Highway Commission. In 1965, Rhineharts added farm implement service, implement sales and tire sales, then in 1967 their metal building construction. Carl retired and moved to Grinnell with Lois in 1994.
