In moments of deep sorrow, may all of you feel the gentle embrace of God´s love surrounding you. Though your loved one is no longer by your side, His soul has returned to the eternal light, where there is no pain, only peace. Love never ends it transforms, it guides, and it continues to unite us beyond time and space. May the memories you hold in your heart become a source of comfort, and may faith give all of you strength until the day you are reunited again in the presence of the Divine." Elia Paris and Family

Aaron, my heart is just shattered. You became family when you first started dating Kayley and I think from the very beginning you called me Aunt Jes. You and Kayley never ceased to amaze me in setting your goals high, putting together a plan and making those dreams come true together. You were such a loving and devoted father, you were an inspiration to dads with how hands on you were. I was so proud of how as a young dad you finished your college education and landed your dream job. You had such a brilliant mind and loving heart. House shopping with you, you made me laugh so much. Your one-liners were hilarious on our house hunting adventures. And when others doubted you and Kayley were taking on too much with that Back Mountain home you guys believed in each other and made it so beautiful! For being so much younger, I admired so much about you and Kayley and the life you guys were building. It absolutely breaks my heart. You are so loved and cared for. When I see you again I´ll be looking forward to that Aaron hug and a rap battle because I´ll never forget your rap talents I discovered when you were finally of age and we all drank together at our Bad Sweater Christmas party! Fly high Aaron! You will be forever missed!!!
