About Reese

Reese Merrill Fadden, daughter of Tim and Jennifer (Norpell) Fadden, was a vibrant and enthusiastic 9 year old girl, who passed away suddenly in January 2024. As a third grade student at Elden Elementary School in Baldwinsville, NY, she brought boundless energy and inspiration to everyone she met. She was an accomplished gymnast at Blaze Gymnastics, where her natural talent and unwavering determination were admired and cheered by coaches and peers alike. She was a nurturing older sibling to her sister, Quinn, and a loving cousin to her extended family with whom she spent countless joyful moments and adventures. Reese’s memory is forever etched in the hearts of those who knew her, including her parents, sister, grandparents, aunts and uncles.

 

It is our sincere hope that Reese's Remembrance Garden will bloom each spring with the same vibrancy as Reese herself, reminding us of the resilience we all hold in the face of such unimaginable loss.
