Yeah, Aaron was, as you say, the youngest of the three.

Dara and Cailin are his two oldest brothers.

He was, as you say, a wee character.

He was a very happy-go-lucky wee boy.

He loved life.

He was full of life.

He loved school.

He was eager to learn.

And just all round, a happy wee boy.

He had a charm and he had a glint in his eye that he could wrap you around his finger just within minutes.

It was, of course.

Every day was a new day and a different day and you had something to deal with it.

But it was all fun and it was a very happy household and they played out the back.

There was a field at the back of the garden.

They played there together.

They always played together.

They got on really well.

And a busy house and a happy house and, as you say, boisterous and all of that in with it, yeah.

Yeah, Aaron had been unwell and he had been actually attending the doctor and he had been to the hospital twice and the symptoms were that he suffered with a sore stomach, sort of putting down to a bug and he had been to the hospital overnight twice and

I had actually had him in my mum's house this day, and the hospice nurse who called, well, my dad, had come to visit, and Aaron was lying on the couch.
