With all of his athletic achievements, ... Aaron never made the focus of attention on him. That, to me, was Aaron O'Neal's legacy.

He had as many friends and people flock to him as any kid I have ever seen, ... The amount of people at his funeral would make anyone cry. There were over a thousand people from every kind of background. Totally incredible, the amount of people for a 19-year- old. -Bob Bunton

Our students organized a candlelight vigil on campus two nights after Aaron's death, ... They tried to do it the night before, but the police broke it up because they got a little worried with that many kids and no adults.
