Edgar and Lillian, please accept my sincerest wishes for you to overcome this sad event. The words of anyone cannot ease the pain you are suffering and the memories you have shared with Aramis. Just hold closer to God, whatever you chose for him to be; He will keep you and guide you; He will show you why and have you to gain what you thought was lost. I know. I lost my Dad. I hope you remember me from Manhattanville. If not, that is okay. At times like this, I remember both of you. My love and best wishes are your, Burney Boyd (kisses and hugs)

And remember that he’ll ALWAYS be with you and Lillian, and with everyone whose life he touched! I love you both, and you have my sympathy during this most difficult of times!

Dear Rios Family, I had the wonderful pleasure of working with Aramis while assigned to the US Customs Office, San Juan. I will always remember his great energy, aggressiveness to pursue cases and his smile. I am so sorry for his loss and he will truly be missed.
Dear Lillian and Edgar, I am so saddened to hear about the loss of Aramis. I can only smile when I think of him. He was one of the most wonderful young men and he brought so much joy into the lives of others. I think of how kind he always to my son Chedly and of the times that they shared together when they were young. I cannot even fathom that this has happened and I can only imagine the pain and sorrow that you are feeling. I love you both with all of my heart. Pamela
Rios Family, I just recently learned of your loss and I’d like to share my deepest condolences. Aramis and I graduated from Oakton together and although we have lost touch over the years, I still consider him a friend. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers. -Marc Daniels
Edgar and Lilian, I know it has been several months since you lost your son, but I wanted to take this moment to express my condolences for your loss. I remember the great pride you both displayed even when you said his name–“Aramis”–the last we spoke way back in the 1980s. I know you loved him dearly, as your only son, and I am sure he knew this better than anyone. I lost the closest thing I had to a brother in a car accident in 1973. He was 16. I think about him almost everyday. The two of you are among the best people in the world, and I pray that you will find solace in the words of the Lord during this time. God bless you, Edgar and Lilian. Adonis Hoffman 703-627-0400
