You were a rare person with a special gift. You made those around you smile and your spirit lifted others spirits as well. God take the good ones young and though we miss you here. We know you're bringing joy to those you're with now. They say theirs no tears in heaven but I know when I see you again tears of joy will flood my face and all of those who miss you.

Tomorrow is Mother's Day - always a hard day for me. I'm so glad Rachel is close, but it's not the same with you gone. I miss you so much. You didn't remember Mothers Day the last year you were here - made me so sad. That was a hard time for you. I like to think you remember it now & are sending your love until we're together again. I love you!

Happy 29th birthday, Aaron! 5 birthdays have passed without you - it's hard to believe you've been gone so long. Zoe is sweet & beautiful & we're making sure she remembers her Daddy. Miss you so much!

Happy 27th birthday, Aaron! I find myself wondering who you would be today if you hadn't left us. Would you have matured; made better choices in life? I like to think you would have. Wish we could have seen you become the man you were meant to be. Wish Zoe would grow up with her Daddy here. Wish my heart wasn't broken. I miss you every second of every day. Hope you're celebrating with the angels today! Love you!

Aaron-I can hardly believe a year has gone by since you left us. I've been reliving your traumatic death all day & am heartbroken. There is still love, joy & beauty in this life, but it will never be the same. You were a part of me, but now you're gone & have left a hole in my heart. I can only take comfort in knowing you're at peace & we will see you again some sweet day! I love you

A year has gone by... In some ways it doesn't seem possible... and in others it seems much longer. You will truly be forever missed. Love you. Aunt Amy

Aaron, I still can't believe you are not here. Seems like so many times when I think of Zach growing up, I think of you also. There are so many memories of you. I remember one Easter after you two were grown and you had spent the night and I bought you both Easter baskets with candy and such in each with a cheap watch for each of you and had them sitting by each of your beds,the smiles.

Aaron I love and miss you. Happy 25th Birthday. You left too soon and too young. When I see you again I am giving you the biggest hug ever. Life isn't fair, I shouldn't have to be writing on your memorial site wishing you a happy birthday, I should be able to see you and hear how your day was. I sure do miss you.

Aaron, There are no words to express the sadness I feel at the loss of your life. You were taken from us much too soon and you have left a void in our lives... in my life. I love you, my sweet nephew, with all my heart. We miss you, Aunt Amy

Aaron, I love you and miss you so much. You always were kind, thoughtful and polite to me. You were a bit picky about what you ate :) but you would always sleep wherever I had a place and never complained about anything. I am going to miss you "Little Aaron". My heart feels heavy

You own part of my heart. You're the one that no matter what was going on knew how to make me smile and laugh and I will forever love you. Your time with us was cut short but we have an eternity to make each other laugh again. See you soon baby brother.

My best friend and someone I looked up to. Aaron taught me how to be a friend, how to laugh and cry, how to let go. He taught me how to press on, and he taught me the value and need for family. Any good I do will be due to God putting Aaron in my life. Ill miss you man. Love you.

There were so many things I wanted to share with you, so many things to do together...but God had other plans for you. I am blessed to have been your dad here on earth, I love you more than you will ever know. It's God's turn to enjoy you now. I will see you soon. Love, Dad

You didn't remember Mothers Day the last year you were here - made me so sad. That was a hard time for you. I like to think you remember it now & are sending your love until we're together again. I love you!

Family portrait

December 27, 2012
This is the only family portrait we had taken after the babies were born & before Aaron died. Before our lives fell apart. Aaron had asore muscle i!!!n his back that day. Youcan't see it, but I was rubbing his back when this was taken-partly the reason for his big smile

Aaron's urn

June 30, 2012
I saw this beautiful keepsake urn when I went to the funeral home to make the arrangements for his cremation. It's made of brass with a metallic blue finish. It reminded me of Aaron's computer. I thought about buying it, but didn't. I mentioned it to my sister, Amy, & a few weeks later, she made the trip into Tucson & bought it for me--so thoughtful of her! I had it engraved with a line from a beautiful poem by e e cummings that expresses how I feel-he will always be in my heart. I'll fill it when we're ready to spread his ashes & will leave it to Zoe somedat when I've gone to be wirh Aaron. 12.26.12: I did fill the urn with some of Aaron ashes before we spread the rest of him in the mountains near his home. I'm holding the urn in my hands in this photo.

Shoes

October 3, 2011
Aaron took this photo one day when Zoe was at his apartment when she was 2. Zoe lined her shoes up next to Aaron's & said, "Zoe's shoes are little and Daddy's shoes are big!". Little girls always look up to their Daddy! Aaron thought this was so sweet & funny!
