A couple years ago Aaron started the family arm wrestling Christmas tournament where myself and Aaron and Paul Steele would participate in of course Paul and myself lost to Aaron so the following year. Paul and I show up at Aaron‘s house Aaron‘s wearing a custom 2021 arm wrestling champion ball cap. we all had to laugh because Aaron didn’t think anybody would notice.
What can I say Aaron was one of my closest friends going on 30years. We spent alot of time together in our teenage years raising hell, chasing women and having fun. We could sit down as men and tell stories for days and we would always laugh when we would get together, like it was yesterday. I’m so proud of the men we became Aaron! He will be missed by so many because he touched so many lives. Hardworking, Master Plumber, Mechanical Whiz, Could drive anything with a motor I mean anything heavy machinery, dump trucks, excavators, loaders, tractors , boats. He could drive a truck at night with no headlights, in the mud, snow, sleet, and ice with ease truly amazing! He was a Great Husband, Father, Son, Brother, Uncle and Friend. He loved being a Father most of all because Aaron loved being a kid at heart and was amazing with all kids. He was kind and generous and I know he touched so many people with his kindness and generosity. I’ll miss you Dotts more than you can imagine save me a spot up there brother.
Aaron was my daughter Amanda’s first playmate when she and Aaron were babies and neighbors on Dellrose street. So sorry for your loss. Monica Taylor
Aaron was just a young boy when my home was being built next door. One of my fondest memories is that while my driveway concrete was still wet he wrote his initials and the date. I cherish that forever keepsake. Thank you Aaron for being such a good neighbor boy who grew up into a wonderful man. Prayers of peace for your family.
How glad I am that I got to visit briefly with you and your lovely little family a couple of Summers ago. What a fine man you became. My heart is so saddened that you passed so suddenly and my prayers go out to your loved ones. When my house was being built over 30 years ago, you wrote your initials and the year into the wet cement of my driveway. It is still there to this day and now, I see it and remember long ago when life was so full of promise. May you rest in peace dear Aaron along side your precious Mother. She was my best neighbor ever and I miss her every single day. Prayers to your wife, children, and sweet sister.
