Part of Aeriel’s assignment for Filipino class

Aeriel was a kind and warm hearted individual who devoted much time and care to our church, his family and passion in music. He was an accompanist for the youth choir I cantor for and would often provide me so much support as a vocalist. I truly am blessed having to been able to work with him and want to offer my sincerest condolences to his family and friends and want to thank them for raising Aeriel to be generous and encouraging. I hope to continue to pray for him.

We appreciated your individuality and unique perspective of the world. Your talent and kindness touched our section and many lives. 

Picture description: This is a picture of our section after an away game at Cal Poly. This day we commemorated all our graduating seniors in the band.

Aeriel’s band lineage family was very much just two shy upper class men. He always radiated happiness and never failed to make us laugh. His outgoingness allowed us to feel comfortable and at home with each other. We miss you and I know wherever you are you’re doing the same.

Picture description: We had a football game and we’re in the gymnasium before we head out in our formal band uniform.  We took pictures with his band sister Alanna and band mom!

I had the opportunity to meet Aeriel through the UC Davis Marching Band. When I first crossed paths with him, I saw his talent and enthusiasm when it came to music. His talents radiated through the band and our section. I am grateful to have seen his growth through this musical organization. 

Picture description: Band parent & child pair announcement. We had a musical rally for the first years and as his band parent, I presented him with his informal uniform jacket.

November 1st, 2021. This year our sousie costume theme was adventure time. We all made the best costumes we could but we were all impressed how Aeriel was able to make a bmo costume out of the supplies he had in his dorm room.

October 15th, 2022. Pictured are the sousies right before the football halftime show. Only the four of us played for most of the season but Aeriel was always the loudest making us sound like a bigger group.

March 18th, 2023. Pictures here were all the sousie sophomores finally receiving their beanies. All us upper classmen were so proud of them for working so hard their freshman year to learn the music and the horn movements. By getting the beanie they became official members of the section. Beanies are only worn by the sousies and worn with pride to show off all the work they achieved.

I am so sorry for your loss. It pains me deeply to know that such a bright light has left this world. Aeriel was many things but most of all he was kind and he held a deep passion for both music and his religion. While my words might not do much I hope the pictures/memories give you some light in these dark times.
February 13th 2022. The ucd marching band sousaphones and trombones play Valentine's day/love songs all around campus and downtown Davis. Pictures here are the sousies celebrating the holiday together after playing music and spreading love.
