Shriners Hospitals for Children

I will be running 100miles over the course of the month of August.  I'm looking for people to donate their time, money and energy to help improve the lives of children across the globe.  Funds do not go to me, but instead directly to the Shriners Hospital.  Join the running adventure "Shriners Hospital 100-mile Challenge" (MapMyRun app) and track participation.

As an infant, I was born with a condition commonly known as a club foot. At eight months old, I had to undergo surgery to correct my physical disability in order to be able to walk right. Doctor Barnes and his staff at Shriners Hospital did an amazing job with the surgery. What I am about to accomplish this Saturday could never have been thought possible if it weren't for the amazing people over at Shriners Hospital. This Saturday, I will be setting out to complete my first ever marathon! A marathon is 26.2 miles in total distance. For this marathon, I will be running for all the kids and young adults over at Shriners who sadly do not have the ability to run and compete in physical activities. Any donation is greatly appreciated but, it would mean a lot if each person would donate a dollar per mile coming out to a grand total of $26.20! All of the proceeds will be donated to Shriners to continue their great work assisting those who are in need of medical care for many different disabilities. I am blessed to be in the condition I am today and Shriners deserves much of that credit so help me in giving back to them and helping a boy or girl in need! Thank you!

Darrell Reese, age 62 of Murfreesboro, died Thursday, March 19, 2020 with his family at his side.  He was born September 20, 1957 and was a 1979 graduate of the University of Tennessee.  Darrell had a unique enthusiasm for life and was deeply passionate about his grandchildren, horse racing, Tennessee football, and Halloween.

Darrell succeeded his father, Paul Reese, at the helm of the family’s business, The Reese Group, where he served as the Chief Executive Officer and President for over 30 years.  Darrell grew the business from a small local brokerage shop to the largest regional broker in the United States by treating every employee and customer as a member of his family.  Darrell’s leadership, determination, and innovation during the consolidation of the brokerage industry in the late 1990s and early 2000s positioned the company for the success it has achieved today.

In addition to his wife, Lyvonn Reese; his family includes his children Ryan Reese and wife Megan of Nashville; Robyn Morrissey, husband Micah, and grandchildren Emmett and Margot of Nashville; Daniel Reese, wife Elizabeth, and granddaughter Nora of Brentwood; and Kelly Fanion and husband Michael of Providence, Rhode Island; mother, Ardath Reese of Murfreesboro; siblings, Norman Reese of Murfreesboro and Larry Reese and wife Joy of Mount Juliet; and a host of other loving nieces and nephews.

Memorial donations in lieu of flowers can be made to the Darrell Reese Memorial Fund on GoFundMe established for the benefit of the Greenville Shriners Hospitals for Children.
