Aaron Coverdale
5 years old
Oklahoma City, Ok
Aaron and his brother Elijah were well loved by their family and friends. Aaron was a quiet boy who enjoyed watching Sesame Street. He liked to play with his Power Rangers, color and swim, and was happy that he was learning to write.
Aaron and Elijah had just been dropped off at the day care center at the Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City when the unthinkable happened: a massive bomb inside a rental truck exploded, blowing half of the nine-story building into oblivion.
