Aaron Michael Caudill, 30, of Granite City, IL, was born on May 17, 1983 at St. Joe's Hospital in Ypsilanti, Michigan. He left this life on July 11, 2013 at Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri in the presence of his family. Aaron battled leukemia since the year 2000 with great success. Aaron was an aspiring artist who drew his inspiration from his comic books and family portraits. Aaron worked as a unit secretary for Gateway Regional Medical Center before moving on to work at the Wellness Center as a personal trainer where he touched even more lives. After 13 long years of fighting, this courageous, fun loving, forever smiling, happy, and much loved young man moved on to a place where there will be no more suffering, just a place where he gets to sit back and watch the TV show of our lives. He will be laughing at our follies, basking in our happiness, and crying with us during our times of pain, hurt, and heartache. As always he will be watching and guiding us all. Until we meet again we LOVE you (Aaron Mike, Bubba, Chamarin, and SON)!!!!!!!!!!!!!
