Rest easy Aidan.
RIL Aidan! Rest easy and fly high.
This is deeply saddening, Sarah and family. While I didn’t get a chance to meet you personally, I’ve been a friend of Ryan’s since his Loyola Chicago days, and he so often spoke so highly of you, Sylas and Phoenix. I wish you hope and healing; there will be rough days ahead, but with your strength and that of your family, I know you can get through it and look to the future.
All the best,
Mary Fran Lebamoff
Sarah, Silas, & Phoenix, I am so sorry for your loss. The kids adored their daddy and he adored them and their mama! Aiden will always be with you! This will be a very hard season in your life but everyone who loves you all will be there. I pray you find peace and understanding, one day you will see him again in heaven! -Ms. Dawn
Wish we had the chance to work together more in the kitchen. You, your brother, and your parents have always treated me like family and I am forever grateful to have been able to chill with you one several occasions. This one’s for you my friend! Rest in paradise. #lafamilia #family

I am so sorry for your loss, Sarah. I know what we haven’t spoken much since you moved in (I think that the last time was 4th of July last year when you, Aidan, and the kids were shooting off fireworks). However, if you need anything, please don’t hesitate to ask. Dad and I are directly across the street.
Some shine so bright, so fast- that it is so much darker when they are gone. We’re sorry to hear of this loss. May Aidan’s memory be eternal and shine for you in all the times that you need his light. Sending love and strength.
So sorry for your loss .He was one of my cousins on my Mother’s side. She was Otis sister
He was such a gentle soul. Kind hearted, soft spoken & quick with a hug!
The hole left by his passing is immeasurable ! May he rest in arms of Jesus!
My sweet cousin Tami, my heart breaks for you. R.I.P. dear cousin and know that you are loved.
I didn’t know Aiden as well as I knew Sarah. But I just want to pray for this whole family and send my love and condolences. I can’t imagine your heartache. Praying for your peace which surpasses all understanding ❤️
