I am deeply saddened to hear of Aidan’s passing. Aidan and I never had the chance to meet in person but we did FaceTime a lot. We talked and shared laughs. 

I will remember him running his finger through his hair and showing off his shoes (bapes specifically)

Forever in our hearts and thoughts❤️

What an absolutely stunning  young man you are, Aidan. I was never able to meet you but I’ve  followed you through  the many anecdotes provided by your loving  grandparents  and  devoted mother. What I know is that you were so full of life and potential , still learning and growing and finding meaning in life.  I apologize to you, Aidan, for a society that has lost its way and put untenable burdens on our youth making the future seem very bleak and sometimes impossible for many.  Your loving, sensitive soul will  not be forgotten  and the Aidan McLaughlin Foundation will be a conduit for listening to and nurturing our young people when they are in need.  I know this is what you would want.  

Wishing the entire family peace and comfort as you each find a way to heal.

Thank you Melissa and Patty for giving us an opportunity to be part of Aidan's memorial and to express our sentiments for the loss of this young life full of promises and possibilities. We are far away, but the friendship that started years ago got cemented forever and in moments like this our spirits are tangled in the sorrow. May the memories of Aidan that you treasure give you peace. Sincerely, with much love,

Bill and Maria MacKay
