From The New York Post-Personal tragedy sent Episcopal priest Diane Reiners on a downward spiral before she was caught swerving through the Holland Tunnel with an open bottle of vodka and prescription meds in her car, colleagues told The Post on Sunday.
Reiners, 53, of the famed Cathedral of St. John the Divine, lost her beloved husband several years ago to tongue cancer.
“It was a very painful death . . . He was a wonderful man,’’ said Deenar Matthews, a fellow priest at St. John’s in Morningside Heights.
Reiners, who lives in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, chronicled her husband’s cancer battle in Marie Claire magazine in 2010, saying, “We laugh when people say that marriage is hard work. Cancer is hard work; our marriage is easy. But taking care of him can leave me without much time to take care of myself.”
