Aayden was one my favorite students at LaVergne Lake Elementary School. He always had the biggest smile which always immediately put a smile on my face. His hugs made my heart light up and he just made you feel loved. Aayden was one of my PE students and he will be missed. He was a bright light in this world. Sending hugs, love, and prayers of comfort and peace to his family. Love always, Coach P
