It is with a heavy heart that I am creating this account for my best friend, Ashley, following the sudden and tragic loss of her son, Aaron E. Strong. On Wednesday, February 26th, 2025, Aaron passed away, leaving behind a devastating impact on all who loved him. Aaron was only 21 years old and had just welcomed his first son, Namier Saint Strong, with his girlfriend Nadirrah on January 6, 2025. Aaron worked tirelessly to support his family, especially during this time when Nadirrah was on maternity leave.

Aaron's aspirations did not stop there. As the oldest of four, he felt a deep sense of responsibility and love for his siblings. He leaves behind three: Demaron, Jaylon, and Ashyra, whose lives are heavily impacted by his passing, as they shared an undeniable bond. So, not only is his passing devastating and unexpected, but it has also placed a huge financial burden on his mom. As to the nature of his passing, there will be no life insurance payout, and all funeral expenses will be out of pocket. As his mom, siblings, and girlfriend try to remember him as the selfless, fun, loving, and caring person he was, while ensuring that his memory can live on with his newborn son, your support during this unbearable time is greatly appreciated.

A message from his mom:
If you've read this and it has touched your heart, I want you to know to always check in on your loved ones, because sometimes the ones with the biggest smiles and hearts are the ones needing help the most. For even the Strong need someone to be strong for them. #MentalHealthAwareness
