Not sure what to say?

Greg and Connie I cant believe its been 13 years since the world lost Aaron. Lots has changed in that time. Break ups, marriages, grand babies, homes bought, and so much more. We all continue living our lives but never forget Aaron. Every single morning I look at his picture in my office and smile fondly of him. I treasure my memories but not more than you both due. I think of him often and miss him every day. I hope you both know how much he loved you both. He truly did!!!

Connie, Scott, Greg, Sherry and family,
Aaron was a guy that was always pleasant to be around. We never saw him get upset, as he was just a happy go lucky type of guy. We will always remember him as he proudly walked his mom down the aisle to Scott. He was a great guy to us as his extended family. We will miss him during birthdays and holidays but will never forget him. He will always be in our hearts and fond memories.

Delivered to friends and family on November 30 to honor his cousin Aaron Bradley Elston. Evan Joseph Keller, age 22 (6 months older)

Aaron-the Great Memories I have……..

My Son and Friend

Thank you to all of you who have taken the time and effort to express their feelings, thoughts and prayers for Aaron and our family. I cannot tell you how much it means to me personally.

All who knew him did know that when he walked into a room that there was something special. He always made me feel better even without saying a word......he was postiive and had smile in his eyes. You wanted to be around him....it made your day better. He never complained or was negative.

To Aaron's Family,
I was saddened to hear about Aaron and want you all to know that my thoughts are with you. I am thankfull to have had the opportunity to work with a fine young man such as Aaron.

Greg and I were blessed by having Aaron come into our lives on July 9th 1984. He weighed in at 10 lbs 9 oz, a big healthy boy. He was born with red hair so we called him “Aaron the Red Baron”. Because of his size he was so cuddly we also gave him the nickname “Air Bear” and “Airsy Bears”. Aaron was a happy kid, always had a smile on his face.

He was very active in school and loved sports which came to him quite naturally. With the help of his Dad working hard with him playing ball in...

Connie oh Connie, and Greg, and Scott, and Aaron's siblings and grandparents...There are no words that can ease the pain. There just aren't. I know that "the peace which passeth understanding" is real and it is a place I devoutly hope you can rest in during the coming weeks and months. Somebody said, "If a thing be so universal as death, then surely it must be a magnificent thing." But it is the loss of the life that was left to be lived that we mourn- not the place to which they have gone. ...

To Aarons family,
I had known Aaron since high school, but I never had the pleasure of meeting any of you. I am sorry that we must meet for the first time under these circumstances.
I can honestly say that out all the friends I have Aaron was the most positive, genuine and fun loving person I knew. I really can’t imagine that kid not being around. I worked with him, we worked out together after work, we partied together…He was always there…
I was recently deployed in Iraq and we had...
