Aaron S Jimenez

Aaron Scott Jimenez died unexpectedly at home on November 7, 2019, in Titusville, FL, at the age of 35.

He is survived by his daughter, Lillian Rose McFerrin-Jimenez and her brother Jackon McFerrin; his parents, Mary Gingo and Michael Jimenez, Sr. (Martha Jimenez); siblings Jennifer Jimenez (Eric Lugo), Michael Jimenez, Jr. (Karim Merchant), and Kevin Jimenez; his grandfather, James Gingo; and numerous loving aunts, uncles, and cousins.  He is preceded in death by his grandmother Margaret Gingo; his grandfather, Alfred Jimenez, Sr.; and his grandmother, Josephine Jimenez.

Aaron was born on November 24, 1983 in Morristown, Tennessee to his birth mother, and adopted by the Jimenez family in 1990. He grew up in Titusville, FL, and graduated from Titusville High School in 2003. After high school, he served four years of active duty with the United States Marine Corp. where he attained the rank of Lance Corporal and during which time he deployed to Iraq twice.  Most recently, he worked as a cook at Valentino’s Pizzeria.

He was a loving father and friend to all those who knew him.  Aaron loved nothing more than a day at the beach fishing with Lily.  He was proud of his service to his country and cherished the connections and memories of his time in the USMC.  Aaron loved to have a good time, a quick laugh, country music, karaoke and a winning scratch off ticket.  He will be missed.

A funeral mass is scheduled for 11/21/2019 at 11:00 am at St. Teresa’s Catholic Church, with a brief military service for the interment of ashes to follow at 12:30 pm Cape Canaveral National Cemetery in Mims.  All are welcome to attend and celebrate Aaron’s life.
