ROBINSON, Aaron Michael Charles

April 5, 1988 - August 23, 2007

"I'm going to capture the light and keep it in my
heart"
Aaron's name means "one of light" - and that was
Aaron. When he walked into a room, the light went on
for everyone there. That light dimmed when Aaron
drowned on August 23, 2007. His remaining light will
be in all of our hearts forever sharing his thoughts.
Aaron was raised in Molalla, he attended Country
Christian School and graduated from Oregon City High
School in 2006. He played football, baseball and
basketball and gave 110% every second he was on the
field or court.
He was so full of life. He was adventurous and pushed
everything to the limit to get the most out of all
that he did.
His family was the center of his life. Even as he
started out on his own path, he stayed connected to
his large extended family. He was a hero to the many
children whose lives he touched.
Aaron was a charmer and no one was a stranger to him.
When you met him he became your friend. There was
never a dull moment when he was around and he had a
joke for every occasion. Aaron left a lasting
impression on everyone's life, whether they just met
him or had known him for years. His positive outlook
on life was contagious, making everyone around him
smile.
Aaron had a deep seated sprituality about him. He
started each day saying "it's all good" and he went to
bed each night still saying "it's all good".
Aaron is survived by his mother Rhonda Alexander and
stepfather David Alexander; his father Chuck Robinson
and stepmother Diane Howell; his brothers Charlie
Robinson, Dave Alexander, Nathanial Alexander and
sisters Annalisa Robinson, Natasha Alexander, Britteny
Alexander and stepsister Jacqueline Chandler. In
addition, Aaron leaves behind many loving
grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. He
will be missed.
A memorial service will be held on Thursday, August
30th at 2:00 p.m. at Country Christian Church, 16975
S. Hwy 211, Molalla, OR 97038 with a reception
following.
