"Aaron was more than just our coworker; he was our teammate and our friend," said Maj. Jake Schillinger, 20th CMS commander. "Each of us is feeling the hurt that comes along with such a painful loss. Aaron was the type of Airman who lit up every room he entered with his smile and positive approach to life. He carried such a presence in our squadron, and his absence will not go without a great deal of anguish in the coming days, weeks and months. Ash you can imagine, this has been a heartbreaking week for the 20th CMS. We are grieving alongside all those who loved and cherished Aaron."
