Dear Reece, Emilya, and family,

We are heartbroken at the loss of Aaron and Christie. It seems impossible that a tragedy like this could happen to such wonderful people.

We are remembering a million wonderful family memories of Aaron, as a boy, of him growing up and then becoming a successful adult and a great father.

We pray that Aaron and Christie have arrived in heaven with their family members there, and we pray that Reese and Emilya and their family will find some comfort in their memories of them, and the strength to get through their sadness.

We will continue to keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

Love,
Uncle Gary Francque (husband of Aunt Margo)
Cousin Jason Francque and family
Cousin Jennifer (Francque) Heckenkamp and family.

Aaron was my best friend growing up. I have more great memories of our adventures than I could ever count. He was always sooooo much fun to be around. I'm very sad we lost touch with each other and I'm crushed now that he's gone. My deepest condolences go to Linda, Barry, Megan, and the rest of his family. Aaron was an irreplaceable part of my cherished childhood and I am crushed he is gone.
