I am so sorry… for your loss. I didn’t know him, but I was there the night of the accident. I am a nurse…I and many others did everything to help him. Just know I never left his side.  I prayed over him and held his hand.  I pray for comfort for you and your family.  You are in my prayers. 

I had so many classes with Aron throughout high school. I really remember all the mornings before school started, all of us hanging out in the quad. Aron always had The Sheik on hand and a smile on his face. After we graduated, we all went our separate ways but a few years later Aron had approached me while I was shooting pool. Felt so bad I didn't recognize him at first, but that night we reconnected and he joined the same team I was on not long after. Aron was such an amazing person and full of life. He is truly missed by all of us who knew him

I loved being  Aron's librarian at Solimon Schechter. He was such a delight. Such a great smile and twinkling eyes. My condolences. 

My Dearest Suzanne,

My heart is breaking for you, my sweet friend. May Aron's memory be a blessing.  To bury a husband and now your only son is beyond any bodily pain. I hold you tenderly in my heart and send you love, comfort, and warm hugs. This photo was taken in 2002 in Jacksonville on Ilan's 7th birthday. Aron was a kind friend to Ilan and helped us feel like we belonged to the community. Aron accepted Ilan as his buddy and made a place for Ilan in his big heart. When I think of Aron - it will always be with a huge smile and abundant gratitude for his gentle soul. Many blessings to you, dearest one.

Aaron , you are my second baby brother, not by  blood or genetics but by love and choosing. I watched you grow up . You are my brother Diego’s best friend. I remember the two of you being inseparable and you both loved to annoy me as little brothers do. I miss that. I never thought I’d have to say good bye to you in this way. The memory and love of you will always live on in my heart. You always made me laugh, you always wanted to help when someone was in need. Your heart is one of the the purest, kindest and most loving hearts. You have touched so many with your light. I’m honored to have been able to know you, love you and watch you grow up. I love you Aaron and I will miss you. 

I feel like I watched you become a man in those years you were with us. I never thought I would be saying goodbye so permanently. You protected me, you comforted me, you laughed with me, you cried with me, you've seen me at my worst as well as my best, you helped raise my children, you shared in my humors, you were my confidant, you advised me, you respected me, you loved me. You were so many things to me Aron. I will love you forever. The family we chose.

 "Perfection is not real. Perfection is not human. Carlos is not perfect- no, even better- he is imperfect. Everything about him, and us, and all of this is imperfect. And those imperfections in our reality are the seams and cracks into which our outsized love can seep and pool."

-Cecil

Aron was in my class at MJGDS. We also spent time with him in cub scouts and campouts. He was a sweet, funny, goofy kid. He was always making contraptions to do things with. He wasn't afraid of anything! I remember one campout where he and another boy kept riding something into the freezing lake. He had so much fun! Our deepest condolences to his family and friends. May his memory be a blessing. 

I cannot believe he is gone. My heart goes out to his friends and family. Aron was a sweet young man. I will always remember his smile and that great laugh of his.

Born a day apart, we spent so many years celebrating our birthdays together. I still have the birthday voicemails saved. This is so devastating, you were such a unique soul. You always left such an impression on people. Always in a good mood, cracking jokes and making people smile. You will be greatly missed by the many lives you touched.

I only knew Aron for a couple of years  since he'd been coming to Chop Riverside to get his hair cut. He would fill the place up with his humor and he was just a light. Rachel would cut his hair and beard and he'd still found time to joke and laugh with the rest of us. We're going to miss him so much. Chop Riverside won't be the same without him! 

My sincerest condolences to his parents, his fiancee and his family. 

I held Aron as a baby. I know he must of been a man full of love given who his parents are.
Grief is it's own journey and no one has a specific way to endure it.
My wife and I will send love and support daily.
We will help you as you deal with your profound loss.
We love you very much,
Angela M. and Donna M.



You always knew Aron was around because you could hear him laughing and carrying on louder than anyone at any establishment no matter where or what time it was. He was a true good friend of mine and I would have done anything for him. From the time I moved down to Jacksonville I had to start fresh had no friends and him Big al and Adem and I were very close friends. Myself,  my wife and my son will miss him dearly. 

My deepest sympathy to Aron's family . The only conection with Aron is at the Synagogue and for  many years . I always looked forward to seeing him and felt better after having done so . He always had a big smile and gave me a big " bear hug " . I'd kid him about his  beautifull big red " Superman "  Talit . As seldom as I saw him I will still miss  him and his cheerful presences  . May he  rest in peace and get together with his wonderfull dad , Scott .

Aron was an amazing person. Kind, caring, funny, and always willing to help others. His wealth of knowledge seemed to be never ending and he always knew how to find solutions for problems, no matter how big or small they were. He is deeply missed already. I hope his family knows just how much he loved each and every one of them. 

Suzanne, you have my deepest sympathy. 
Aron was a very respectful young man while working with me in the pantry.  Even though I didn't interact with him outside of work, his presence will surely be missed here.  May God strengthen and comfort your heart during this time.

Love,  Jackie
