Wow man that's only 18 months older then me. They say death has no age limit and I guess this is one more piece of proof.

Aaron was 1st vice President of the Auctioneers Association of Ontario. He always had a cheerful approach to life and even though he was in failing health, he never let it show in his attitude and enthusiasm for his business and his Allis Chalmers addiction. We had many discussions about old Allis' and his chosen profession. He missed the last Board of Directors meeting because in his words "I'm not doing so well" I wish we all could be as Aaron demonstrated!!! RIP AAron Kates!
regards,
Ken McGregor
