Kenan,
I am so sorry about your son Aaron.
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers, I know we don't even know each other very well, but if you need a friend, an ear, a shoulder, or anything, please know I am here for you. You are a dear, and you have lots of love and prayers and thoughts being sent your way, way more than you could ever know. It seems silly that we just know each other from a silly yoga class, but I am glad I know you, and really, if you need anything, I will be there for you. Do not hesitate to call me...I would be happy to come over and just be a friend...

I pray that as you sleep, you can envision what I do when I need comfort, envision the most pristine huge wings of your guardian angel, envision them being soft and comforting, envision them wrapping around you in comfort and love.

Please call me anytime. 593-8943

Aaron, you were one of the bestest of friends that anyone could have ever asked for. No matter what you always gave people respect and you were always friendly. i keep thinking that this is all just a bad dream and that you'll walk around from behind the wall and smile but that wont happen. I keep thinking about all the good times that we had like when we were playing with your dog, love barney he was so sweet, and then when we picked on your dad and Gina.. good times well you'll be missed and loved by all who knew you. RIP Aaron
love now and forever,
