Aaron was a good friend and a truly gentle soul. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Aaron always had a smile on his face, whenever I saw him. We had many short, but very interesting conversations, his knowledge on many subjects was outstanding. Buying Cigars won't quite be same anymore..Rest in Peace Aaron

Oh Janna, I'm so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, I know Aaron was much loved.

Find strength and comfort in HIM! Love, Your Barberton, Ohio Cousins (Kathy and Eric Fogle Family, Matt and Denise Porter Family, Tim and Jamie Porter Family, and Drew and Angie Porter Family)

Sorry to hear this. I met Aaron and his wife Brandie when i first moved to Charlottesville. We lived in the same apartment community. We talked frequently about motorcycles and nascar. He was always enjoying a cigar on his balcony. What a tragedy. Aaron was a super nice guy. May he forever rest in peace.

My heart goes out to all of you for your past & recent loss. I know there are no words to ease your pain but I hope, knowing you have many that care & will be holding you up in prayer, helps in some way. May Jesus Christ hold you close these next days/weeks/months & may you find comfort in Him.

My condolences to the Boyd family.
Aaron, if your recall those T110s we traded, one of my last will be burned today in your honor. Godspeed, bro.
