Thinking of you, all. Forever in our hearts 💕 


Aidan and I worked together at the Brandon Reading Clinic last summer.  He always made  me smile!  Not only did he give me 100% effort, but he also shared his love for his family ...and his dislike of bugs.  He was kind , caring, inquisitive, and  passionate about protecting others.  Having the opportunity to work 1:1 with Aidan was a gift.  Aidan believed in persevering even when he felt anxious.  He helped make the world a better place and will be greatly missed. 

My deepest comdolences to family & friends of Aiden.  I met Aiden a few years ago when Amy Moore (relative) would babysit for him. I remember how sweet and kind he was. I think of him now as a Guardian Angel watching over his little brothers.  When my father went to heaven, I found support & help through Hospice with individual & group counseling. I cried for 6 months at the church alter.  I will pray for your family. Sometimes there are no words that can be said. A hug and a cry on someones shoulder can bring comfort. 

Gosh where to start. I will miss his good morning  Miss Doreen . His smile lit up the rink at 6:00 am.😊 He was a little tike when he first started taking lessons from Miss Alexis. He loved his hockey & his little brothers. He will live on in the people he saved. Enjoy your life with god Aidan. We will miss you.❤💙❤ Love , Doreen Van Vliet 

He was the cutest child I ever coached. He would skate and sing. Not a care in the world. I will never forget him

I do not know you or your child but I know people who are affected by his absence. My heart aches for you because I can not image your pain. I recently lost my husband suddenly & I know this journey will devastate you. (The loss of a husband is huge but I’m sure nothing like that of a child.) I pray God will show up for you in remarkable ways, offering you comfort & peace when it seems so unlikely. I pray you find good counselors to guide you along this road. (BSBC gave me names of incredible people. I’m sure Sig could help you with that too.) 

Know that you are being prayed for & lifted up when you can not stand on your own.  Lean on others, because you will need all the support you can get.

I’ll never forget the day that Mandy called me to tell me she was pregnant with Aidan. It was such a big, new adventure for her and Matt. It was so fun to watch her transition into being a mom, and the most incredible one at that! It’s been such a joy to see their family grow over the years, and I’ve loved getting to be a part of Aidan’s life from the very beginning. He was an incredible kiddo, and he will be missed. I know that he will continue to live on through all those he has touched, and all those he will be able to help. Love you all so much! 

Aidan Maton was one of the sweetest, cutest, most interesting little boys that we have ever had the privilege of knowing.  We’ve lived next door to his grandparents, Dave and Jean, since September of 2012.  Watching Aidan grow up has certainly been one of the highlights of our life!  He had an incredible imagination and often warmed our hearts with his stories about his daily adventures at his grandma’s house.  Most of these stories were about either bugs, animals, Star Wars, or video games.  He often had to protect grandma’s house from bad guys and was ready with his swords and play guns to take out whatever tried to hurt them!  Aiden the protector!

We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the entire family.  We know what a struggle the last few years have been for this amazing family, as Aidan’s passing is not all that they’ve had to endure.  We love you all and have been praying for you as often as possible.  If there’s one thing that we know, we can all take comfort in knowing that Aidan is in Heaven, helping God protect us all.  



My name is Lori Nikolajski and I work in the lunchroom at Bell Shoals. I have known Aidan for several years. I remember his first day eating lunch in the cafeteria. Like his classmates, he walked in shy and unsure. I showed the class to their table and I noticed Aidan's R2-D2 lunch box. I told him how neat I thought it was and asked him if he was a Star Wars fan. His face lit up, he got excited and the whole table began talking about Star Wars. He loved that lunch box. If my memory is correct, it seemed that he had that lunch box every year since that first day. 
Aidan was a bright, quick, kind and funny kid. He made me smile and he made me laugh. He was loved and will always have a place in my heart. 
I will keep your family in my thoughts, my heart and my prayers.
