Mrs. Loretta Bell & Family.....I just found out that Aaron passed away.... I was so sad to hear this news. I met Mr. Bell at dialysis & loved his sense of humor & his kind heart. I'm so sorry that I did not know he passed sooner, as I would have paid my respects to you & your family. He talked about you Loretta, his family & his love of horses, all the time. He was so proud of you & we all admired the beautiful quilt's you made (of which I have one!). I will always remember his smile, his laugh & his friendship to all of us at dialysis. He will be missed! May God Bless you & yours.....always! Linda Myers
