    Bruce, Maryann and families. Hearing about Aaron goes beyond sadness. We have missed seeing you at family gatherings in recent years but will remember well earlier days when we climbed the mountains together. I like a poem by a writer called Paula Kirman. It says in part: "Listen to the wind ... lacing us together if only for a moment...with calming peace that fills the air and breathes peace ... into our hearts." Love from Aunt Elsie Thornton Fiore in Arlington and your cousins David, Carl, Peter and Russell.

    Brucie and Maryann I am devastated for you and can't imagine your pain at the loss of Aaron. He was definitely taken to young. I wish I could be there for you but know that I love you and you are in my thoughts and in my prayers. Look to Jesus for comfort for he said "Blessed are those that mourn for they will be comforted" Mt 5:4. Your sister and auntie Gail

    Dear Mary Ann, Andrea, Erik, Rachel and Alicia and Lori and Caleb, There just aren't any words to describe how shocked and sad I am to hear this news.
