      You always seem find the right words to give me some comfort. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful family. Love you.

        …. Still thinking of you, Sarah. Absolutely Love the picture chosen. His smile though!! It really brings out his kind and loving soul inside. Sounds like you have a wonderful family by your side to keep going strong. Praying for you, the children: MaKenna, Cameron, and Jordan, Rikki, and the family. Please let Rikki know I am thinking of her as well during this hard time.
        Rest in Peace Aaron Rad Hemker. Miss you more and more as the time keeps passing not being able to call you. Wish we could have gotten together since my baby girl, Khloe Sue, had been born. We are doing so well. You would be so proud of Steven & I. I know you would. Carrying on without you is hard for all your family and friends, but I am a little extra sensitive for your mother and her pain, as you know. Please help her through this by smiling at the memories of you. Favor?? Lol 🙂 Give my sweet baby boy Vinny and my mother big hugs. My Mom always liked you and knew how special you were to me. Such a great friend … I couldn’t have asked for more. Truly. You’ll always be in my heart Aaron. Love ya always.
        Your friend,
        Kel <3

    To give my condolences to Aarons family, he was a good friend of mine though I didn’t get to know anyone in the family really. He had a wonderful personality and was always so nice to me and knew just what to say to cheer me up and he will be greatly missed.
