It brought tears to my eyes to see a television story about Aaron and all the wonderful things he did during his short time on earth. My heart aches for his parents, and all the family and friend that lost such a wonderful boy. I only hope that if I ever have a son, he will be an incredible child like Aaron. I can only hope that his parents take comfort in knowing what an amazing child they raised, and that he made the world a much better place during his all-too-brief life. My deepest and most heartfelt sympathies.

Dear Eilerts Family, The loss of a child is unfathomable and its never easy to say goodbye. The memories will help you get through the days, weeks, months, and years ahead. Aaron was a special boy whom we never met but have heard plenty about from his fellow scouts here in Nebraska and Iowa. You can rest assure that Aaron by his scouting and other activites help make this world a better place. The scouting community has lost a dear friend and the Church has lost a dear brother in Christ. May God give you His peace.

Oscar and Carol, the family, friends, and fellow Boy Scouts of Aaron - You are all in our thoughts and prayers now and in the future. Our hope is that with love and support from one another you will all find the strength to get through this. We remember when Aaron was learning to ride his bike and you would ride past our house and still keep going even further. (We lived six blocks from you.) He must have been on his path of learning and adventure already then. Seems he stayed on that path and never did things in a small way. You can be very proud of all of his accomplishments, so BE VERY PROUD and STAY STRONG! Keep your memories close to your heart! Time does heal, though it may not seem that way now.

Bob, Carol and the entire Eilerts family,All your "extended" relatives in Missouri are thinking of you and offer our heartfelt sympathies.

Praying for you while you while you look for strength and courage. May you find peace knowing that where Aaron is, is better than being anywhere else.

Bob and Carol, our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family from us and everyone at the store. Aaron was one of the most thoughtful kids i knew. He has left me with so many great memories, the times he came into the store to get supplies for one of his many projects, the school plays, the choir, the band, i seemed to see him everywhere. He will be missed but never forgotten.

The more I read about your very special son, the more I admire each and every thing he did for anyone he could. The world is a better place for having Aaron in it. I hope he will be an example to others on how to love life and give from your heart. I am praying for all of his family and friends and I know he is happy in heaven.

Oscar and Carol, We are so sorry for your loss. We are praying that God gives you the courage to celebrate Aarons life. You raised a wonderful young man.

Bob, Carol, and Grandma Janice, im soooooo sorry to hear about Aaron. I was in his class back in grade school. He was such a nice boy and i just moved recently to Cedar Rapids from West Point and unforntunatly thats why i could not attend the memorial service. Im greatly sorry for your loss and wish it would of never happened. I know how big he was on boy scouts it was his whole life! I know he paid his dept to society more than anyone else. I know if he was only one of the boys that was injured he would have been the best scout a leader could have. I really am truely very sorry and want to let you know im thinking of him and all of you each and every day that goes past.

Bob and Carol, I was so sad to hear of your loss. From reading the stories about Aaron, you must be proud to have raised such a kind and loving son. Although we cannot understand why this has happened, God has a reason and when we reach our Heavenly Home we will be united with our family and friends. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Blessings to you.

Bob and Carol, I was sad to hear about the passing of Aaron. I will always treasure his memories; helping me make things for my bulletin board at school, and receiving one of his scarfs he made when I left Eagle Grove High School. I will always remember working with you in the lunch room at EGHS and sharing all the good things Aaron was doing. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

When I heard about the tradegy at Little Sioux, I was stunned beyond belief. The sadness has been overwhelming. My family grieves because Aaron is a part of the Family of Scouting. Anything causing hurt to one causes it to all Scouts.Our prayers are with the Family forever

These 4 Boys are indeed a credit to the Scouting every where and will be long remembered for there Scouting Oath they have taken.
