Hawkins, Aaron Kase
Aaron Kase Hawkins, a spirited and kind-hearted soul, left this world far too soon on August 23, 2025, at the young age of 24. Born on October 23, 2000, in Demopolis, Alabama, Aaron was a man whose infectious laughter and boundless energy brought joy to all who knew him. He departed peacefully in Summertown, Tennessee, surrounded by the natural beauty he so loved
The son of Regina Delouise Baker Hawkins and the late Warren Kelly Hawkins, Aaron’s roots were deeply planted in the values of family and hard work. His life was a testament to this, as he grew into a man admired by many. Aaron’s love knew no bounds, extending from his cherished mother to her significant other, Eddie Griffin, his fiancée Abby Barber, and his beloved children, Bronx Hawkins and Catherine Kase Hawkins.
Aaron’s siblings – James Thomas, Brittany Thomas, Lane “Bull” Hawkins (Sierra), Blain Hawkins (Linnae), and Holly Ann Hawkins-shared in the adventures and dreams that Aaron pursued with passion. He was a beloved uncle to Tate Hawkins, Roxy Thomas, and Annabelle Thomas. His grandparents, Blair and Frances Baker and Ronnie and Linda Hawkins, instilled in him a deep appreciation for his heritage and family legacy. Aaron also held a special place in his heart for his uncle’s Jason Hawkins (Elizabeth) and Mike Edwards, his cousin Kenzi Hawkins, his soon-to-be mother-in-law Tonya Barber, and brother-in-law Lance Barber. Aaron was preceded in death by his grandmother Kay Baker and his uncle Danny Baker.
Professionally, Aaron was a skilled heavy equipment operator, known for his precision and dedication. He was a man who lived his interests fully, from the thrill of bull riding and bareback riding to the roar of motorcycle engines. Aaron’s hands were rarely still, as he found joy in tinkering on everything he could, ensuring it was fixed up just right. An avid outdoorsman, Aaron’s love for hunting, fishing, and collecting guns was paralleled only by his deep respect for nature.
Aaron’s faith was an integral part of his life, and he was a proud member of the Christian rodeo church, where he found fellowship and purpose. His adventurous spirit, loving nature, and kindness made him a friend to all.
A celebration of life will be held on September 21, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. at Memorial Gardens in Demopolis, Alabama.
