Life story

Jaden R. Reed was born in Rochester, New York on August 26, 2013 to his parents Jeremy Reed and Barbara Rivera.

Jaden attended Gates Chili Middle School where he completed 7th grade. Jaden was musician at the middle school and loved playing the drums in addition to clubs and sports that he was able to tryout for like Track & Field. Jaden always had the drive to grow up fast and be independent like his sister, Jaden would ask his father if he could have a “walkers pass” and once he got it then from there it was always “Daddy, can I walk to your job and hang out til you got out of work?” and most of the time I could never tell him no.

Jaden loved all kinds of music from the 60s, 70s & especially the 80s and bands & solo artists like Linkin Park, Michael Jackson and Eminem. He was also a huge movie & tv buff and grew up on TMNT, Fresh Prince, My Wife & Kids, etc. Jaden was a diehard WWE fan and never missed when they came to Rochester to be apart of the “Yes Movement” with Daniel Bryan, seeing an RKO out of nowhere from Randy Orton or throwing the “Ones” up in the sky to acknowledge Roman Reigns and The Bloodline.

Jaden loved spending time with his parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and church family. He took an active role in church activities and helping his mother with charitable and community. He would always express his dreams of being a YouTube streamer with video games, riding a motorcycle and owning a big house with his best friends Monroe, Malachi, Cameron and RJ.

Having beginning his new journey on Sunday, June 14th, 2026, Jaden leaves his love and memories with his parents: Jeremy Reed (Jessica Roggow) and Barbara Rivera; siblings: Giannah, Julianna, Jordyn (Luna), Jordan (Edward), Anayha, Ariana, Alahna, Randy Jr and Troy Jr; Grandparents: Venessa Mitchell, Bernard Mitchell & Juana Morales; Aunts: Jessica France, Michelle France, Bianca Cuadrado, Sara Hernandez & Michalla Talton; Uncles, cousins, friends, church family and school community.
