Aaron Bates' Memorial Fund

Donation protected
Aaron Carter Bates was absolutely one of a kind. He has fought all his life with his health. He most recently was having a hard time with eating and maintaining his nutrition. Due to complication, he passed away February 23rd, 2022 at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida.
 
As said best by his family:
"Aaron was a ferocious advocate for the disabled and disenfranchised and dedicated his life to helping others who, like him, needed a warrior in their corner."
 
As you can imagine, there is a financial burden that comes along with a funeral service and going back and forth between Orlando, FL (Aaron's home), Chesapeake, VA (Corky & Cindy's home) and Jacksonville, FL (where he will be laid to rest).
 
I am reaching out to you all because I know so many of you want to help. If you feel led, please donate to help offset what expenses lie ahead. The Bates Family can not thank you all enough for the outpouring of love and prayer they have felt. It is truly a blessing to see and feel. They are grateful to everyone in advance for their kindness and compassion in such a difficult time.
