This is horrible to hear about Aaron's passing. I had an excellent conversation with Aaron as he was managing a painting job along the Cowlitz River just weeks ago. I was really impressed by Aaron's work ethic and leadership he developed over the last several years. Condolences to Aaron's family, a good man gone too soon.
