A day doesn't go by these last 10 years that I don't think about Aaron. He was and will always be my best friend and brother in Christ. He was like a brother I never had. God received a great man 10 years ago.

Aaron has been my best friend for 18 years. We met at Central Baptist School in middle school. I always considered Aaron like part of the family. We were like brothers. Aaron was the nicest, sweetest, caring person I have ever met. He considered my daughter as his niece, he loved her very much. Aaron will be truly missed and always be loved. Aaron is in heaven with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. One day I will see you my friend again. May the Lord Jesus Christ give peace to Aaron's Family and Friends through this hard time.

We remember Aaron when he attended Little Zion with his family. We shall remember him with a big smile on his face.
We pray for your comfort now and in the difficult days ahead. There is no pain greater than that of losing a child. Our God has promised that He would never leave or forsake us and He will deliver. He will take you through this life challenge.
Be blessed and encouraged.

We love our nephew dearly. When we first married Aaron always wanted to be with us, telling jokes, saying silly stuff, just making us laugh. Our family has a comforter, The Holy Spirit & trust in Jesus Christ, the son of the living God who will give us peace that goes way beyond our comprehension.
