A.J. was my first-born son. His friends spent so much time at my house that they called me Mom. Even though I hadn't seen many of his friends for 15 years, I recognized most of you at his Celebration of Life. The outpouring of love and support still give me great comfort. So many people loved him and still do. I love you, A.J. I carry our snake in my purse ;^)
Love, Ma (as you often called me)
AJ was such a sweet soul, and I am so sad to hear of his passing. I was a part of the McDonough theatre family with AJ. He was always such a good listener and his sense of humor was so unique and even contagious. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends and loved ones during this difficult time.
I am so saddened to hear of AJs passing. We worked together at Bank of Southern Maryland and we all have many fond memories of him. Keeping you all in my prayers.

Dear Jill and family, while I didn’t know AJ I send you my heart-felt condolences. He was obviously a loving person and much loved in return. Keeping you in my prayers as you mourn such a great loss. Judy Usherson
I, too, am a member of Jesse's family, one of her aunts, and had the great pleasure of spending time with Ashley at many family dinners. Ashley was a wonderful addition to our family -- a kind person, an intelligent person, a gentle person. I was truly shocked and remain very saddened by his sudden loss. My deepest condolences and sympathies to his family and his friends.
We too were so sorry to hear about Ashley ! Such a nice person ..... (Jesse’s aunt & uncle)
We are so saddened and shocked by Ashley's passing. He was a wonderfu l person. And he had a wry sense of humor that stood out. We will miss him greatly at our family dinners. Such a loss. Jesse's family
My heart is so broken ...but I also know deep in my soul that AJ is finally at peace. This world has lost a kind, generous, compassionate, warm and incredible human being, but eternity has gained a true angel. I will always treasure the kindness and the love you shared with our family. Your love for, and friendship with my daughter Brittany, will never be forgotten 💕

A.J was another brother by another mother, he was always at Joes side and Steve the rest of the merry gang. I watched him grow up with my brother , watched him go from A.J to “Jesus A.J” he was In Joes wedding, performed Mikes wedding and then he was there when we needed him the utmost , at my dads funeral. A.J came to my brothers rescue when his dog got hit by a car, they loved that silly lil Miata together and neon cars! A.J you are going to leave a huge gap in so many peoples lives but we are no doubt better for having you even if it was brief , RIP and find the peace your in need of!
I'm heartbroken at the loss of my friend. I've known AJ since we were in the 10th grade. We went to prom together. I loved him dearly and knew he was always there to support me and listen to me when I needed him. He was there when I got married and supported me when I got divorced. When I hit hard times he helped pick me up. We didn't talk or see each other as often as I would have liked but he was always on my mind and in my heart. I hope your soul is at peace and I look forward to seeing you again some day on the other side.

AJ and I had a theater class together in high school. One day we got on the subject of cats (I love cats!) and we started to talk about how silly they acted; how they would lay really flat as if you couldn't see them, tuck their ears back and make their eyes really big, and even kind of wiggle back and forth. We laughed and laughed, and then would imitate this. AJ sat across the room from me at times and I would glance over and see him behind his back-pack, acting like a cat. I'd only see the top of his head and eyes and I knew exactly what he was doing, and I'd laugh!!! We had a really good friendship in high school and I have thought of him several times lately. People share photos of our theater trip to NYC and he was there, he was in Brigadoon with me. RIP AJ. You are missed!!
