Pain and Joy
Pain. Because we have lost one of the greatest Soldiers, Green Berets, and HUMAN BEINGS you could have ever known. Because none of us who knew him will have the pleasure of having a conversation with him over a beer or in the hallway at the Company. Because his family will have to go on with only the memories of a hero that they called Brother, or Son, or Uncle.
Joy. Because I did know him; and know him still. Because the memories of this Green Beret, this friend, are greater than the anguish that we all feel. It was a joy to know Aaron.
God bless this Fighting Soldier from the sky. God bless his amazing family.
