“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever” (Psalm 23).

Seldom does a day go by where there is not something that reminds me of you. You were such a mentor to me, and had a profound influence on my life including giving me the support and believing in me when I started out in the business. Bernadette and my life have been immeasurably changed by your friendship and I pray that Leah grows up to know what a wonderful person you were, and I am certain that Alexia will see to it that your memory stays alive. My heart goes out to them now that you are with god. We love and miss you.
With Love,
Miguel Aramayo

I keep the memories of you close to my heart, not a day goes by that I don't think of you, or hear your voice in my head. Alexia reminds me of your warmth so often and I will forever cherish your place in our family. I was so looking forward to the union of you and your beloved Alexia, as well as being a part of the beautiful family you two built. I pray you watch over your two girls, Alexia and Leah; and my heart felt condolences to your family.
I love you, brother.

So kind
I was referred to dr. Aram by my family doctor. My husband was a patient for years. I was a bit of a challenge but dr. A was there. After a difficult night I was in and out of sleep in my hospital bed. He appeared about 5 am and asked what are you doing awake. I said what are you doing awake? I love and miss him. Rest In Peace
For little Leah.....your daddy loved you sooo much. He would always share the latest pictures/videos with me with so much pride. He loved you dearly.
To Alexia.......you made him very happy and you were very much loved. Believe in the promise God has given us. We will see him again.
