In loving memory of Everardo “Aaron” Benitez

Who this will help

Dear family and friends,

It is with heavy hearts that we share the devastating news of the loss of Aaron Benitez. This unexpected loss has been extremely difficult for his family and loved ones. At the young age of 26, Aaron left this life much too soon. He was a decorated Air Force veteran who served six years for our country. He was an intelligent, kind, loving, and humorous spirit, and we will forever miss his jokes and laughter. While this has been an absolutely heartbreaking time, we find some comfort knowing he is now at peace with his father.

Why I'm fundraising

The unexpected nature of Aaron’s passing has not only affected his family emotionally, but financially as well. We are creating this page to help raise funds for his family and ease the financial strain. The VA will be covering the costs of his burial plot and headstone, however, they unfortunately do not compensate for the other funeral home expenses.

The impact of your support

Donations will help to cover the costs of the funeral and memorial service, including the fees associated with the necessary transport from an out of state funeral home. Money raised will also help to support family members flying from out of state during this busy and expensive time of the year to fly. The Benitez family greatly appreciates any and all support given during this challenging time.
