We might name the current contest in his honor and make it an annual event. Just a thought.

Having only just returned this morning, I am saddened to learn of Aaron's passing. Although I can't claim to have known him very well, he always struck me as being a honest, stand-up and good natured guy, always willing to pass on his skills.
My condolences to his family and his friends, he will be missed.
Rest in peace Aaron.
regards
Jamie

Like many here I had the good fortune of meeting and talking w/ Aaron at WF, but we had also kept in touch via PM and e-mail on some military modeling subjects as well. Always a gentleman, he sent myself and some others boxes of Curly Wurly candy bars from the UK, simply because we enjoyed them at the show. A gentleman and an incredible painter to the last, I will miss him.
My heart and prayers go out to his family. May the angels bear him home.

Being 37 myself that is way to young and my sincerest condolensces to Aaron's family and friends .
Travelers to unknown regions would be well-advised to take along the family dog. He could just save you from entering the wrong gate.
