I went to High School with Aaron and have great memories of him. I remember him as being outgoing, fun, energetic, and easy to connect with. It seemed like he was friends with everyone! I'm so sorry to his children and his family (both blood and like family) who are grieving his loss. He was truly a wonderful person.

I was always happy to be in the company of Aaron at family events over the years. I knew him to be very pleasant, kind and engaging. I thought very highly of him as did his sisters, my children, Rachelle and Kristi. I know this is devastating for his children and his siblings and of course his mom, Cindy. Cindy, I'm thinking of you all.
