Meet Luke Aaron Mize.

[Linked Image]


I'm a Great Uncle Again.

This young man was named after my big brother Patrick Aaron Mize. Over 9 lbs & hungry.

My big brother Aaron was born a diabetic and a hemophiliac. His entire life was nothing but shots and doctor's appointments. His entire shoulder area would turn purple after shooting some dove.

When he was 15 he got hit by a car learning to ride his new bike in a place you would never imagine that happening, he was bleeding pretty bad.

Dad rushed him in, and to save his life they gave him blood. That blood was infected with HIV.

They gave him 10 years. He died at 25 yrs old.

He was skin & bones and in serious pain but he still drove from Aransas Pass to Beeville & Falls City to pick us up & take us hunting and fishing EVERY chance he got. We had some great times together. I was young and didn't know he was dying. He came to pick us up until he was too weak to get in the truck.

Welcome to this world Luke Aaron. I will do my best to represent my big brother as long as I live.

welcome Luke! Beautiful baby. He obviously comes from strong stock. Tragic and touching story about the man he gets his name from, but a beautiful way to be remembered by a little brother. up

Thank you Sir. His namesake was a good one. He worked as a paramedic for years until the Lord shifted his gears & he couldn't. He loved helping people.

Just a little tribute, a few pics of him. We never took any pictures hunting or fishing. Just made memories and cooked what we killed.

I'm the dark one. My little brother was light skinned/blonde hair.

That's me with a broken arm, from playing football. I must admit, it was nice getting out of schoolwork.

Used to spend a week at Concan every year. He taught me how to properly float the river.

Drums & piano. He was my inspiration for being a drummer.

Congrats Skinner cheers



His Dad (my Nephew) is bigger than me LOL. Tall, blonde headed young man. Strong with a good work ethic. Hope he keeps it up. If not, I'll be on his [censored].
