Aaron it is so lonely with you and Sarah her. I will never ever stop loving you guys. You were both my rock and this gets harder each day instead of easier. Every time I get ready to go to Minnesota I get afraid that I will have a total break down because you and Sarah aren't there. I love and miss you guys. You guys hold my place because I want to sit at the table with you two. Maybe God will give me a voice by then so I can sing with you two because I know you both are singing in that heavenly choir.

We met in LLCF. We talked about the Lord from that time forward. You rejoiced in the truth. Came with to pick you up with Larry and Edwin never will forget the day. Watched the Lord work in your life, changing you into His image. You were used mightily for His glory and honor. After attending church consistently for 6 years where I
did also on 7-28-2013 you made a choice to move to NYC. Last words between
Us I asked if I could pray for you ...you said Yes. I prayed God would use you for His glory and go before you & make the crooked places straight. 9-21-2013 we received word you had departed from this life, the Lord took you home. You finished the course. I'm grateful to have met you Aaron. I'll see you again one day in that city where the Lamb is the Light. The city not made with hands whose builder and maker is GOD. Love you Aaron and thanks for being my friend

My dear friend and brother in Christ,
Have wondered about you a number of times and am glad that we met and were friends. Your voice was an amazing instrument to God's glory and now you are singing with the angels.
Although it is painful to lose you here in this lifetime, it is reassuring to know that one day soon we will see you again.
Rest in peace Aaron,
