Deepest condolences to the family. May Gods promise help you endure during this difficult time. John 6:40

A few years ago I was attending a funeral of a
dear friend.The minister that day gave the most
comforting eulogy .He started the funeral
with a smile and and thanked the many family and
friends that had gathered for their last goodbyes.
He said , this is not a day of mourning but a reunion
of a loving and inseparable couple and to know that they are together again and in the presence of
our Lord,Jesus is a glorious day and we should be honored to celebrate the life and homecoming of our departed friend.
Girls,I know with all my heart that this is true with your Dad and Mom.Let your tears give way to the happy memories and the comfort in knowing that Arron and Glenda are indeed together again .
Love ya
Wayne and LaKeta

So very sorry to hear of Aaron's passing. Saying prayers for the Armstrong family.
Steve Hutchens and Aaron were the best of friends in high school and our son John Aaron was named after Aaron. And how ironic Steve passed the same day as Aaron.
God be with you all.

Every time l think of the man l came to call Uncle Aaron l see him dancing down the stairs of their apartment in Indianapolis singing Macho Man shirtless. l thought it was the funniest thing. Knowing him l know everyone has those funny stories/memories of him that they will never forget. He was such a fun loving man with one of the biggest hearts in the world. A son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, and friend to be honored to have in our lives. Love you always and forever Uncle Aaron!

He was a good neighbor and great story teller. He did a great deed for my son when he was injured from an accident.
