Aaron Cramer Obituary

Aaron Ryan Cramer, 31, a beautiful child of God loaned to us, entered into eternal rest on October 28, 2005. He was born on November 9, 1973. He graduated from Liberty High School in Liberty, Missouri in 1992 and attended the University of Missouri - Kansas City and the DeVry Institute in Phoenix. He was a member of the Woodlake United Methodist Church. Aaron loved life and lived it to the fullest. He was a caring and generous person to all people, both young and old; he especially loved children and their innocence and energy. He always put others before himself and took such good care of those he loved. Aaron was so loved by everyone who knew him and his sudden passing will forever affect us. We will live each day in honor and memory of Aaron. Friends will be received Tuesday evening from 7 to 9 p.m. at the family home in the Woodlake neighborhood. The memorial celebration service will be held on Wednesday, November 2, 2005, 11 a.m. at the Woodlake United Methodist Church. Immediately following the service will be the interment at Dale Memorial Park. Aaron is survived by his parents, Eldon and Judi Cramer; his sister and best friend, Cristen; grandfather, Les Beck; aunts, uncles, cousins; his much loved special friend, Jen; and many, many friends. He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, John and Helen Cramer; and his maternal grandparents, Charles Balcom and Bonnie Balcom-Beck. In lieu of flowers, donations may be given to the children's program at Woodlake United Methodist Church, 6601 Woodlake Village Parkway, Midlothian, Va. 23112 to the Aaron Ryan Cramer Memorial.
