I have fond memories of my cousin Aaron from when we were kids. I remember one time in particular when he was staying at our grandparents' house for a week while his dad was on vacation. Both grandparents still worked at the time, so during the day, he would come over to our house. As an only child, I didn't always have someone to play with, but for that week, I had someone who wanted to play game after game after game with me. In fact, we played so many games that I was actually gamed out by the end of the week, something I never thought would happen. But I had a lot of fun that week, and I hope he did, too.

Once he moved down to Florida, I didn't get to see him that often, and when he did make it back up to Wisconsin, it seemed like we could never get together like I would've liked. I remember one time he came up for a whole week and spent quite a bit of time at our house. Unfortunately, that was during semester finals when I was in high school, so I ended up spending all that time at the dining room table studying instead of catching up with him like I would've liked. As it was, I was at the dining room table instead of in my bedroom where I usually studied because I wanted to try to be a part of everything.

All my memories of Aaron are good ones. I just wish I had more of them, and more recent ones, at that. For those who do, be thankful and take comfort in them.

 I was 8 years younger than my brother and I wish I would’ve gotten to know him better and seen him more often. Most of my memories are from back when I was a kid with him. Although I am glad I got to share a few times with him in Wisconsin over the last few years. I will always remember the times working on his first car with him, or at least watching him do the work. No matter long it had been since I had seen him we always picked up right where we left off. Whenever I saw him it seemed like it had only been a few days since we’ve seen each other. I will miss my big brother.

I'm so sorry!  Aaron and I shared a lot of great times together in and after high school in whitewater, he will always be loved and remembered. What a fun guy and great high school friend.

Aaron was a really great guy. I loved his smile. He will be greatly missed.

I used to hang out with him when we were teenagers.  I haven’t seen him for many years. I was hoping to see him when I came to Florida this fall. I’m Sorry for the loss.  He will be missed.

The thing that I remember most about Aaron is that he liked to drive around. Safe driver, except for one day when he decided to do spin outs on a gravel road. He was laughing like a hyena, I was whimpering like a dog.  The only time he ever did something like that.

This is so sudden.  I was just thinking about him the other night and all the fun we had in Houston.  Aaron will be missed, I'm sorry for your loss.

Aaron was a great guy. We hung out a lot in Port St. John when we were younger.  You knew he was comming because you heard the bass 10 mins befor you saw him. He was the only one in Port with bass like that. Port St. John was a small and tight knit community back then. It was practicly a ghost town. If it wasn't for him back then I don't know what life would a been like, Josh Jamison, Mike Jones, RG Reed, the twins, Jason, Sean, and I miss those days. I miss all the long nights at Dominos getting pizza and going back to Aaron's chillin and playing Super Nintendo. Aaron is going to be missed so much. He really meant a lot to so many people. I am very sory for your loss. You have my deepest condolences.

As Aaron's Father and friend I will always remember his smile, his sense of humor and his willingness to lend you a hand. As a young man he learned to camp, hunt, fish and most of all work on cars. As he grew older he could fix or build almost anything. He was also very, very good with his pets Chico and Skittles, and his basset hound Sidney. I will keep him in my heart forever and I will always remember his famous words "GOT CHA". Rest in peace number one Son.

 
What can we say? Aaron was a wonderful, thoughtful grandson. He appreciated whatever we did for him no matter how big or small. He has a laugh/giggle that put a smile on you face. He always seemed happy. Whenever we talked he would always end the conversation with,  Love you Grandma or Love you Grandpa.
Aaron has a special place in our heart, and will never be forgotten.

 I knew my brother Aaron since he was born. Of course I was barely toddling around then. I’ve known him his whole life from the wide eyed boy to the capable man he became. Aaron was always loyal. A friend of Aaron was a friend for life. He had a soft spot for people and things that needed fixing and could build and repair almost anything mechanical. In fact he tried several times to explain internal combustion engines to me. Right over my head. Ha ha but it says a lot that he kept trying. He was always there to help. I don’t even remember how many things he fixed for me over the years.   I will miss all of the Sunday dinners. Our talks. Watching races. And just everything we did together.  We’ve all lost someone special. I will always love and miss him. Goodbye Aaron. I’ll see you on the other side brother.

We will always remember Aaron's smile, no matter what kind of day he had or you had his smile was going to make your day better. Aaron was a very intelligent person that was always curious about how things worked, he was always taking something apart or putting something back together. When he was a teenager we had alot of conversations on the back porch of how to save the world, we were always amazed at how insightful he was, since he chose not to communicate alot about his feelings. Aaron always acted like he had just seen us yesterday and wanted to be always in our hearts even though we lived miles away. We have great memories about the Christmas he wanted the whole family together and the birthday pies he requested. We will always remember him as a worker with a deep work ethic, he always was helping with home repairs and making money at the farm milking cows, working at the grocery store to constantly working on a car or something with a motor. When you talked to him you knew he took alot of pride in his work. Aaron had a way with animals that some prople never have, he could handle the toughest dog and have no problems with them.Aaron's time with us

was not long enough, but we hope he can find something to work on in heaven that will keep him happy his memories will always live through us. Rest in Peace


Dear Cousin Steve and everyone else in the family ~
I’m so so sorry to hear that you are having to say goodbye to Aaron way too soon.  I remember Aaron from when he was so little, so cute, and even still blonde.  It was nice to scroll through the pics in here to see him as he grew up, but my heart is sad and broken for all who knew & loved him ~ praying God’s comfort for you all.
Cousin Tammy
