Aubrey James “A.J.” Foster
April 15, 1990 – August 18, 2019
BOWIE – Aubrey James “A.J.” Foster, 29, passed away on Aug. 18, 2019 in Carnegie, OK.
A funeral service will be at The White Family Funeral Home Chapel on at 10 a.m. on Aug. 23 with Pastor John Little officiating.
Aubrey was born on April 15, 1990 in Little Rock, AR to Brenda Bingham-Steen and Kenneth Foster Jr. He attended Bowie High School for all of his high school years and graduated in the class of 2008.
A.J. worked various jobs after graduation but he found his true calling in the medical field as a certified nurse’s aide, with his last place of employment being Advanced Health and Rehabilitation Center in Bowie. Being a CNA fulfilled the true caring nature that Aubrey had and showed to others.
A life long fan of technology and science fiction, you could often find A.J. on a Star Trek binge or figuring out how to work the newest and latest gadgets to come on to the market.
His intelligence and desire to know all he could ensured they didn’t invent anything yet that he didn’t conquer.
He enjoyed music, reading, trivia and road trips with his best friend, talking about nothing and everything. His thirst for knowledge was never ending. Above all, Aubrey believed in family and true friends first. He was the first to offer to help anyone in a time of need, and those that knew him the best knew they had his love and loyalty.
A.J. was preceded in death by his grandparents, Krystyna Bingham, Kenneth Williams, Mona Foster and Kenneth Foster, Sr.
He is survived by his mother, Brenda Bingham-Steen and husband Dillon, Bowie; father, Kenneth Foster Jr., Clarendon, AR; son, Kenneth Wayne Foster, Bridgeport; brother, Travis Foster, Clarendon, AR; grandmother, Linda Williams, Forestburg; grandfather, Bobby Bingham, Hobart, OK; grandmother, Jacquelyn Gardiner, Nocona; best friend, Nathan Taylor, Bowie; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts and uncles.
In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be made to the American Diabetes Association in Aubrey’s name.
