Thank You - The Family Of Aaron Hawkins

It seems like only yesterday that Aaron was in the back yard, laptop on top of a barrel, cigarette in hand and coffee cup near by. He is writing a blog entry for Uppity-Negro.com. It could be on any of the events of the day or a personal tirade on the world in general. But it is not yesterday, it's now been a year. There is not a day that goes by that we don't think about or miss Aaron. Some days it’s a smile as we remember one of his antics and other days it’s tears as we realize that he is physically gone forever. But in our hearts and mind’s eye he will always be with us.

And so we stop to say "Thank You." Thank you for the cards, the letters, the phone calls, the e-mails, the flowers, the words of encouragement, the food, the prayers, and your continuing support. At the memorial service, it was a comfort to us as friends shared stories and remembrances from Aaron’s life. Please keep us in your prayers and Aaron in your memory as we go forward.

"And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away." Revelation 21:4
