Aaron Reese Scholarship

This scholarship has been created to honor the life of a caring father, husband, son, and friend. While we mourn the passing of such an amazing person, we would like to offer support to Aaron’s daughter, Anya Reese. Anya was Aaron’s world and proudest accomplishment. All funds raised will assist Anya as she continues her education after graduating high school. The family respectfully asks that any donations be made to this scholarship in lieu of flowers.

Aaron Reese, 43, of Schwertner, Texas died on July 13, 2022. He is survived by his wife, Lauren Arnold Reese; daughter, Anya Reese; mother, Lana Krueger Reese; sister, Alesia (Keith) Schneider; brother, Allen (Desiree) Reese; his Papa, Tommy Krueger; and nieces and nephew, Addison, Peyton, Lilly, and Lucy.

Aaron was born a twin with his sister, Alesia, in Temple, Texas on March 18, 1979, to the late Danny Reese and Lana Krueger Reese. Aaron attended Bartlett ISD where he excelled as a student athlete lettering in football, basketball, baseball, and track, earning all-district and all-state honors in both sports and academics. Aaron continued his education at Texas A&M University earning a bachelor's degree in Economics, minor in Finance, and was also an active member of the Texas A&M University student government. He furthered his education earning his MBA from Baylor University.

Aaron went on to become a successful entrepreneur in the healthcare industry earning his spot on the Aggie 100. The Aggie 100 honors the 100 fastest growing Aggie-owned or Aggie-led businesses in the world. Aaron was a master of his craft, but his true passion was his daughter, Anya and ranching. Aaron loved running cattle and spending long hours in the field with his Uncle Scott. If Aaron was working outside with animals or alongside his Uncle Scott, you can bet he was loving life, but as much as Aaron enjoyed ranching, there was nothing as strong as his love for Anya. She was his world and proudest accomplishment.
