Reminder notification that won't go away on Sierra

I have a reminder notification that I can't complete. It doesn't appear in the Reminders app as a pending or completed item, it just keeps popping up a notification over and over again.


If I hit complete or any of the "later" options, it always comes right back in a couple of minutes.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Sierra (10.12)

So the repeating one I posted a screenshot of has finally quit popping up, but now there's a new one in its place. I had one to remind me to call my mom yesterday at 5:00pm. Now it keeps coming back, along with a location-based reminder from a couple of days ago that I completed a couple of days ago.


Again, neither of these still appear in my Reminders app. Both have been deleted.

I was able to resolve this by removing all my calendars and reminders (they were all iCloud, so I just unchecked the boxes in the Internet Accounts preference pane), quitting Calendar and Reminders, removing ~/Library/Calendars, and restarting Calendar and Reminders. Then I re-subscribed to all my calendar/reminder accounts and all is finally clear.
