Greg, It is indeed with a heavy heart I offer my condolences and prayers to you and your family at this most tragic time. I will remember Aaron as a grand young man with a bright sincere smile and a voice of optimism. It was always a delight to shake his hand, get the smile, and to see hope in his eyes. The memories get a little better every day. God bless you and Aaron.

Dear Greg,

I cannot express the sympathy I feel for you and your family. There is no loss greater. Aaron ALWAYS, ALWAYS brought a smile to my face and his spirit was unparalleled. Watching you and Aaron gave me hope for me and my daughter. I will always be grateful for that. I am a better person for having known Aaron.
