I must say that you have reached me today!...I actually remember the last time we talked at the corner of Poplar Ave and Tillman St in Memphis, when you walked up to my car and telling me that you were homeless and you were going back to Florida to your father's house and we parted our almost 10 years of being a couple as friends...I had not expected to find that you had crossed over until today July 1st, 2021 at around 1:30pm, whilst sitting on my bed, I hear "What about Aaron" in my head and since you are the only Aaron that I know, I went to see your Fakebook account, then decided to Google your name Aaron Elizar Peters and here I am writing this to your memory...I remember the first time we met, I had gone to see a friends band play and was sitting at the bar, when your approached me asking if I was with the band and you were dig'n their sound and after a few more words, you asked for my phone number and that started our almost 10 years together...I have to admit that you didn't take no for an answer when you first asked me out and when I found that you were 25 yes younger than myself and told you that I would have to think about it, but your persistence and saying that age was just a number, I went out with you in our first date and it just continued for almost 19 years...I remember you telling me that we were meant to be together, that we were star crossed lovers...We had a lot in common especially the music and the music scene in Memphis and I even introduced you to my old band and gave you our CD, I mean Memphis is home of the Blues and Rock n Roll and we did have alot of Rock n Roll...I had told you the first night that I was accepted and got a full scholarship at the University of New Mexico, so when I graduated I could go on to teach on a First Nations reservation, because I am part Cherokee, but my grandson had RA since he was 5 and he was in my custody, but that d that he lived with me, but that didn't scare you away either...Through all those years together we made 2 trips out West to the Grande Canyon, Sante Fe, our favorite place Sedona Az, where we had planned on moving together and starting a new life after you graduated from MSU...We had so many awesome plans that we made, but some how it just wasn't meant to be for us... Although you had a hard time understanding when I broke it off with you, I did live and care for you deeply... I'm so sorry for your Sandra and your father, I know what losing a child does to you and you know what I went through after Chi Anne was killed...I am hoping that you are finally at peace and your keeping a eye out for your loved ones...Oh, I still have all of your cards and photo's of our time together...You are missed...:v:&:hearts:
