Aaron was my roommate at the USCGA and attended NAPS with me. Such a great kid. Such a caring, honest, and accepting person. We miss him. You will never be forgotten by those like myself that you touched.

Aaron,
Our paths crossed at CGA. You were always smiling.
As I was scrolling through my FB feed your face came up on the ODMP page. It made stop and think of you...something we should all do everyday. It’s unbelievable it’s been 15 years. Thank you for keeping the watch from Heaven. You are not forgotten.
My prayers are with your family.
Rest In Peace

God bless your soul Aaron. I met Aaron when his mom, SFC Blount, U. S. Army, and I were stationed together at Wiesbaden Air Base, Germany in 1986. Aaron was about 9-years-old at the time, the same age as my son. They played together as kids. Aaron was a mild-mannered, respectful and smart young man. I lost touch with him and his mom once I got out of the Army in 1989. Through social media I was put in touch with SFC Blount in late 2013 only to learn that Aaron had been shot and killed in the line of duty. My heart ached for her loss. Having lost my son to a senseless murder in 2010, I know personally the pain and grief a mother feels at a time like this. Rest in peace Officer Aaron Blount. May God continue to streghthen you SFC Blount and give you peace that surpasses all understanding.

MY SON, I have only just been able to come to the realization that I would never see the beautiful smile coming from your handsome face.
God is all and his blessings have shown me your smile through your son's beautiful face. That smile energizes me, and keeps me still.
This year would have been your 36th birthday. I miss you.
Love you forever,
Your MOM

Officer Blount,
On today, the 9th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for the citizens of Fulton County. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy. I've only briefly read some of the reflections left for and read one to stated that you were attending the Coast Guard Academy when you left to become a Police Officer-I bet you would have made a hell of good Military officer as you were a Police Officer.

My life was so enriched the day I looked into your eyes and said you were mine. We shared a bond that no one could explain. I didn't realize that the goodbye and "I love you" would be our last. The fateful day you were taken I felt the pain before I got the call and now years later I'm still trying to cope. You are so missed. You will always be my shadow, my "Nibbles."

Aaron,
Been a long time brother and I am glad they have this reflection site so the world can see how much you meant to so many people. I'm sure you know how much you are truly missed and how blessed we all are to have known you for whatever amount time we had with you. I couldn't ask for a better teammate, classmate, or person to call my friend!! God has better plans for you. You are loved and dearly missed my friend. Always

I have to 2nd C. Bass here. There was none like Blount, when it came to the care of his Security Officers in his beat. Blount treated us with respect and gathered alot of great training and information from us, because he wasn't afraid of not knowing everything. Blount was the absolute best Police Officer I had ever worked with in my Security Career.
I remember the day as if it was now. I pulled out onto Washington Rd, headed to Atlanta to patrol another property, just leaving Blount. (He would come over to our apartments, just to see what we had) About the point I made it to hwy 166, I could see nothing but multiple Police Vehicles with alot of Police lights, driving like they all had a purpose. I said to myself, I hope my partner Blount is ok, because it appears they are rolling on something serious.
As I arrived to Atlanta, we met with an APD officer and asked if he knew if anything had happened in Fulton. He advised that, radio indicated end of watch for a Fulton Police Officer, but they didn't give the name.
At this point my partner and I proceeded back down to the Washignton Rd. area, where we met with a Fulton County Officer (Name unknown) and said to him, please don't tell me it was Blount man. He just stood there and looked at me in silence. I immediately began to be taken over from emotion and began to tear.
I knew at that point, as I do today, that GOD gained a great angel, as we on earth lost a wonderful fallen friend.

Aaron,
In the last three years alot has changed. I finally made it and am now a police officer. I remember the way you always were with us little security officers and try to treat people the way you did, with respect and decency. I loved you for that and I try to use that model everyday. I miss you Brother and think about you often! And trust that I always will until I get called home! RIP my Friend!!
