So sorry for your loss BLRman and to your family.  He will truly be missed on this site.  Wish I could have met him.

This is horrible!!  I never met him but I feel like I knew him for years on here.  Prayers go out to his family!!!  It seems he just posted a couple of weeks ago about his deployment.  This is just bad.....

BLRman,
Thank you for sharing your Brother Aaron with us.
I am honored to have known Aaron, even the little bit I did know him from his words.
In His posts it is obvious he had an incredible passion for elk, a total dedication to his country and a love of flying.
We will miss his contributions here tremendously.
I have no words that can ease your loss, there is no greater love and understanding then what comes from a brother.
Just know you and your family are in my prayers.
Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.
Psalm 144.1

Thank you everyone, I truly mean that.  Thank you Doug for the offer also.  The thing about Aaron is he never slowed down for one second!  He was so passionate about every single thing he did in life.  I think everyone probably already knew that though by his novel like post's and number crunching that would make a math professors head spin. lol.   I just bought his tags and permit apps yesterday as his birthday present.  Not sure what to do now.  Maybe we will put in together one last time. I don't know.  I don't know much of anything right know.

Rest in peace my two Brothers from author service, my condolences too all his family and friends.

Because of your sacrifice we are still able to fly the greatest flag ever flown in the world.

You will not be forgotten.

That sounds like a great plan, put in as partners one more time. Put Dayton on there for a choice. I would be honored to show you around.  :tup:
