I didn't know Aaron but this is still sad news indeed. He was so young. :( All the very best to the loved ones left behind during this very difficult time.

Sincerely

Having only briefly met Aaron at this past Wonderfest, I can just say that I regret not getting to know him better. God bless.

I haven't been around much lately and just checked in to see what was happening. I'm very saddened to hear about this. I didn't know Aaron but 37 is way to young for this. My condolences go out to his family and may he rest in peace. His website says "Quality speaks for itself". From what I've read and remember of Aaron.... he was one top quality person and will be missed by many.

Hi,

God bless his Family and give them strength!!!!

I haven't had a chance to drop in and post much over the holidays, but this is such sad news for the beginning of a new year.
My heart goes out to Aaron's family at this difficult time.
Aaron, thank you for sharing your work with us, God bless.

This is truly sad news beyond words. Having met with Aaron and talking with him extensively over Wonderfest 06', being inspired by his skills as an artist and charming dry wit, and overall deamnor, we became friends over the time since that initial weekend meeting, keeping in contact via e-mail and pm. I spoke with him before the Holidays and this recent news, is a true tragedy. My heart and thoughts go out to his other friends and family. I will always remember him and am at a loss of words, and filled with tears! Rest in peace my friend.

Sincerely,
Chris

I only spoke with Aaron shortly at WF. He came across as a really nice guy. A fellow brother. Wish I had more time to talk with him at the show. God this is terrible. But now he's painting for the big man HIMSELF upstairs. The Horne family will continue to pray for Aaron's family.

I'm posting way late here, but I just sat down and read this whole thread and the initial one announcing his illness. The thread of his illness showed his class. This one shows all of yours. 37 is much too young, speaking as a 37 year old myself. These threads are so heartbreaking, but also nice to see how much he meant to a group of people.

RIP Aaron. Watch over your family now and help them get on.

I also am posting late. So sorry to hear the news. My condolences to Aarons family. Looking at his work you could tell that he put his heart and soul into each piece he did. Most certainly a very gifted person. He will be missed.
