Rest in Peace Aaron. You finally beat all those demonds and are now safe in the living arms of our Lord. What a shame, you did so much to help so many yet in the end you couldn’t save yourself .gone too soon. People mental illness and addiction are REAL. when you see people struggling step up and offer a hand, don’t just turn your backs and pretend you don’t see it , or think its just a phase . Today a Mother and father lost a son. A child lost their father. And real friends of many years lost a brother. This problem is bigger then all of us and should never be taken lightly. If you know someone struggling with demonds of addiction or who’s ever had thoughts of suicide, don’t blow them off because you will never know the day when the demonds could win and the life that gets lost could be someone very close to you. Rest in Peace Aaron you will forever be missed ? ?
What is Aarons last name?
His name was Aaron Chodor
I lost my best friend, the father of my children, this is hard. Why did you do this? Why did you leave me? I miss you and want you back. What I wouldn’t give to hear your voice one more time.
Honestly I don’t think he did. Aaron while he tried to be a leader he was one that would cave to peer pressure. And I’m not thinking he did this on his own. His kids were too important to him. ((( hugs ))) to all of you. I pray the truth to what happened here last night comes out once and for all and those who were there when this happened are caught up with and made to tell the truth about what took place and are held accountable.
