Being a Christian is to love as Jesus does. Erica, you loved Aaron like that...unconditionally. He was a good father and a good friend. You saw his loving heart the way we did and I'm certain his children did. I pray you feel Gods comfort and draw strength and courage from Him in the days and years to come.
