Aaron was very loyal to his family and many friends and never met a stranger. He loved to live life to the fullest, as a young boy he may have been known as ornery, because he was. As he grew up he still kept some of that ornery but his heart was as big as his personality and there was nothing he would not do for anyone. He never let grass grow under his feet because he was always on the go. Aaron was always up for an adventure, he especially loved traveling the mountains. From an early age Aaron had a love for diving and aerial antics, he loved jumping and diving from cliffs. Aaron was an Alabama football fan, he loved watching every game and he especially loved attending the games. He also loved attending the races at Talladega while living in Alabama. He attended many concerts over the years, as he loved all kinds of music. Aaron's mom always knew when he was near her house because not only could she hear the music as he came down her street, but she could feel the beat moving through her house. His love, compassion, friendship, smile, laugh and presence will be missed.
