Named in 1946 for Roy Reese Haggott (1940-2010), who went by his middle name. His developer father Ben Haggott honored three of his children with streets here: see Dennis Road and Sharynne Lane for more. Reese, named after his father’s business partner Bill Reese, was born in Los Angeles. After his parents’ divorce, he initially lived with his mother in Lake Arrowhead but later moved in with his father in Torrance. (Ben Haggott was behind this city’s Seaside Ranchos subdivision.) A UCLA grad, Reese Haggott later became a leader in the car stereo industry, particularly during his 1979-1986 stint as VP of Torrance-based Alpine Electronics, and took over eighty trips to Japan during his career. He had four daughters and spent his final years in Minden, NV.
