On Saturday, she drove to New Jersey, where George Guerrero’s son, Christopher Guerrero, was finally able to cuddle Aria. The family told us it was a reunion like no other.

Clendenin said Aria was sitting next to George Guerrero when he was shot and killed in his semitruck.

“He was not alone. He was with his best friend. He was with his best friend and that’s what she is, his best friend,” said Clendenin.
