Born April 10, 1986, in Ada, Okla., to Daryll and Annette Joe Aaron, he died April 17, 2004, in Ardmore.
Kevin Aaron was an exceptional athlete, friend, brother and son. His passions were football and powerlifting and that passion carried him to many achievements and honors. Although his name didn't appear in the stat sheets, he played the role he was asked, and attacked everything he did in the same manner by outworking everyone else. He was named to the 2003 3A-2 All District team. In his junior year he received the Mister Hustle award and in his senior year he received the "Fighting Heart" award and was a Senior Bowl selection.
In powerlifting, Kevin was named outstanding powerlifter at Dickson in 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004. He was a state qualifier in powerlifting in 2002, 2003 and 2004. In 2003, he set an Oklahoma Football Coaches Association state record in the bench press with a lift of 300 pounds. In 2004, Kevin was overall area champ in powerlifting in the 168-pound division. He was overall state runner-up in the 168-pound division and was two-time state champion in the bench press.
Kevin made a positive impact on every person. Everybody who truly knew him knows that he was and always will be a champion in every sense of the word.
He is survived by his parents and a brother, Trevor Aaron, all of the home; a sister, Aja Baker and husband, Joe, two nieces, Baylie and Avery Baker, and maternal grandparents, Donald and Ruby Joe, all of Ardmore; paternal grandmother, Patsy Aaron, Okemah; many loving aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
Bearers will be football seniors, Cody Bynum, Rob Howell, Logan Howe, Wesley Moore, Danny White, Bruce Lynch, Jeremiah Woodruff, Earl Sanders, Brian Turner and Andrew Williamson. Honorary bearers are remaining members of the Dickson football team.

A WINNER'S CREED
IF YOU THINK YOU ARE BEATEN
YOU ARE;
IF YOU THINK YOU DARE NOT,
YOU DON'T
IF YOU'D LIKE TO WIN,
BUT THINK YOU CAN'T
IT'S ALMOST A CINCH
YOU WON'T
IF YOU THINK YOU'LL LOSE
YOU'RE LOST,
FOR OUT IN THE WORLD
WE FIND
SUCCESS BEGINS
WITH A PERSON'S FAITH;
IT'S ALL IN
THE STATE OF MIND.
LIFE'S BATTLES DON'T
ALWAYS GO
TO THE STRONGER OF
FASTER HAND;
THEY GO TO THE ONE
WHO TRUSTS IN GOD
AND ALWAYS THINKS
"I CAN"
