It appears Aaron was an only child, and had many talents and interests. Thoughts and prayers for his grieving parents and other loved ones are needed. I can't even begin to imagine the pain they must be going through.

Here is another link, to the newspaper from Aaron Eilert's home town of Eagle Grove, Iowa, and information about the memorial fund set up there in his name.

I read somewhere that the monks of New Melleray Abbey near Dubuque, Iowa, donated a handmade casket for Aaron's burial.

Such a sad story. My prayers go out to his parents and the parents of the others who were lost.
What an awful, sad thing to happen. My heart breaks for the families of those boys. And the stories of the scouts and how they reacted to this emergency is just heroic.
Ruth, Mary,
Yes, these grieving families certainly need to be lifted up in prayer.
