Aaron Marcus Stratz

Aaron: You touched so many people including me. Everybody that met you will always remember you. You will be deeply missed but never, ever forgotten. I miss you and cant wait to see you again.

Sheri, Marc and the rest of the Stratz family: I am truly sorry for your loss and you and Aaron will always be in my prayers. Keep your heads up.

Marc & Sheri,

Aaron touched the lives of so many with his winning smile and generosity.  I want to share a story I heard at the memorial service from Jake Wilson's 7th grade sister.  I asked her if she knew Aaron and she said she did, he was the only basketball player on her brother's team who talked to her.  He would say something friendly to her at each game.  Aaron will be so missed but his memories will live on in the hearts of many.

With Sympathy,

Teri Simonis

We are saddened by your loss. Your family is in our prayers in this most difficult time.

Marc, Sheri and Ben

The feeling of shock and sadness we felt on hearing the news about Aaron was overwhelming.  We cannot imagine the grief you must be going through at this time.  Aaron was a great young man, full of promise.  Our hearts go out to you.

I love you baby aaron and i miss you. i think about you everday. you were the first boy to ever tell me that i was pretty, and the first boy to ever have my heart. . i remember it SO clear , we were so young and so happy.

I love you. May angels lead you in sweetboy.
