Gary W. Aaron, 81, of Andover, NY, formerly of Niagara Falls, NY, passed away on May 5, 2023 in Niagara Falls, NY under the care of Niagara Hospice. Born in Brookville, PA, he was the son of the late Wilson Aaron and Betty (Bowser) (late William) Vicaire.
Gary came to the area as a child with his family, where he attended local schools. In 1963, he married Patricia (Clarke) Aaron, who predeceased him on May 5, 2014, 9 years ago to the date of his passing. Gary was employed for over 40 years as a Union Millwright with Union Carbide and Carbon Graphite in Niagara Falls until his retirement in the early 2000s. An avid outdoorsman, Gary loved hunting and fishing. He loved his dog, Apollo. Gary will be remembered for his sense of humor and his flirtatious nature – he loved to flirt with pretty ladies, and to Gary, every lady was a pretty lady. Above all, he lived for his children and grandchildren, who will miss him dearly.
Gary is survived by his children, Wilson Aaron, Jerry Aaron, and Veronica Aaron; his grandchildren, Wilson (Amber) Aaron, Jr., Angelica (Brian) Neubert, Jacob (Tyler) Aaron, Courtney Aaron (fiancé Zach Blackwell), Devin Santiago (fianceé Riley Knorr), Matthew Santiago, Darius (Alissa) Santiago, Miranda Bliss, Danica Bliss, and Mereck Bliss; 10 great grandchildren, and 1 great-great grandchild on the way; his sister, Robin A. Vicaire, as well as several nieces, nephews and cousins. In addition to his wife of 51 years, he was predeceased by his two children, Vicky and Michael Aaron and his sister, Minta (late Jack) Rawleigh.
Per Gary’s wishes, there will be no prior visitation or services. If desired, memorial offerings may be made to Niagara Hospice. Arrangements by M.J. Colucci & Son Niagara Funeral Chapel. Visit mjcoluccifuneralchapel.com for online condolences.
