February 4 2022, the world lost a great man, husband, father, and friend to his battle with Covid. What can I say about Aaron? For starters just to be in the same room with him was an honor. He was so intuitive to everyone around him. You really couldn’t help to like him, no one was a stranger to him. We connected through our love for music and different whiskey, not to mention he married my cousin. The many times we spent together was not enough, there was so much more I wanted to say to him, do with him. Taken way too soon, doesn’t even describe how I feel. His wife goes into better detail on how great a man he was and after many years together people would still catch him looking at her you’d think they were still in the honeymoon stage. She writes;
Aaron lost his battle with Covid on February 4th 2022 at 7:59 am. He died with his wife and first born child in the room. It was sort of peaceful. No awful noises or any movement. But to watch that beautiful soul leave his body broke me in two. He couldn’t fight anymore. I didn’t have to make the decision. He made it for me. He was always sweet like that. He would do even the smallest thing to make my life easier. He was a giver.
I don’t quite know how I’ll make it through this life without him. None of this was suppose to happen. We were going to retire in 5-7 years, buy a boat and cruise the Caribbean. That was our plan. Our dream. Now what do I do? How will I sail without my captain? My soul mate, my everything?
The pain feels like my chest is in a vice. I see why it’s called heart break because your heart feels
like it’s being crushed.
I want to scream at the top of my lungs “it’s not fair”. He was one of the good ones. Always helping his fellow man or woman. He was a Saint. The perfect husband and father. The sole provider and protector.
The grief washes over me like a wave, pulling me down deeper and deeper. I’m going to try and kick and swim to stay abovet water but I’m sure I will get tired. This is my first time experiencing this level of lose. I can’t wrap my mind around it. Why did this happen? Why do my kids have to go through losing their dad so young? Why am I a widow at 44? It doesn’t make sense.
Thank you for all the prayers, well wishes, calls and text. This will be my last post for a little while. Me and my family will take some time to grieve together. But please stick around, check on us from time to time. Call and text. Keep loving us and giving us support. I fear this next year is going to be excruciating without our Aaron. Much love to all of you! ❤️
So please, I ask from the bottom of my heart to my friends and family, please say a prayer for his family and a donation to help his family take care of funeral arrangements and food through this impossible time would be a blessing. Thank you in advance
