Aaron was a gentle quiet person who really loved nature and the outdoors. He cared for everything with a passion and literally would not hurt a fly. Aaron has two wonderful children, Niamh and Damian. Aaron actively encouraged Niamh and Damian to appreciate nature and care for all forms of life.

Aaron had a history of mental health issues and really struggled for a number of years. Although seeking help he still struggled as the help was not consistent enough. Sadly he took his own life on 18th July 2019, aged 28. At the time of his death Niamh was aged 6 and Damian aged 3.
