Dino Reese

Dino Reese (Clarence) age 67 of Pleasant Hill, Ohio lost his battle to cancer on
Sunday, January 12, 2025. Dino was born on December 23, 1957 in Springfield,
Ohio to the late Clarence and Beverly (Bailey) Reese. He will be incredibly missed
by his wife Tammy of 40 years who he loved dearly. He will also be greatly missed
by his son Bradley and daughter-in-law Traudi Hamblin of Akron Ohio, his sisters
Shelly (and Jimmy) Williams of Tipp City, Betty (and Mike) Woyat of Springfield,
and the late Debbie Bailey. Dino was also adored by his numerous nieces, nephews,
and many important friends.
Dino loved America. He loved it so much that he joined the United States Army. He
proudly served from 1977 to 2005. He was deployed to Iraq and bravely fought in
Operation Iraqi Freedom earning him many military decorations and awards. He
was a proud member of the VFW, American Legion, and AMVETS for many years.
After retiring, he enjoyed camping, boating, and fishing adventures with Tammy.
He loved sitting on the deck drinking a cold beer with family and friends. Dino was
always the life of the party. He always had a joke. You never knew what he might
say or do but you were guaranteed a good laugh and a definite good time. He had a
magnetic personality. Once you met him, you loved him. His family could certainly
tell some stories about the Reese’s 4th of July parties. He had a passion for
fireworks but unfortunately, we can’t share any information on that because: what
happens at the 4th of July parties, stays at the 4th of July parties!
Dino’s other love was motorcycles! He enjoyed poker runs and riding with Tammy
and many other Harley enthusiasts.
Dino brought so much joy to our lives. No words can express how much he will be
missed. Our lives will never be the same without him. We also know Heaven will
never be the same upon his arrival!

Funeral services will be held at 4:00 PM Saturday, January 18, at Hale-Sarver Family Funeral Home, 284 N. Miami Street, West Milton, with military honors being presented promptly following the service. The family will receive friends from 1:00-4:00 PM Saturday at the funeral home. Contributions in memory of Dino can be made to the Rehabilitation
