I am so deeply sorry for your loss. We truly loved Caleb. He and Austin a lot of time together, and Caleb was always willing to help, always ready to chat, and never missed a chance to say hello to our son or share about his niece. He spoke often about his mom and dad, and it was so clear how much he loved his family.
I remember when he had just started dating his girlfriend — only a couple months in — and Austin told me how serious he already was about her. I didn’t know him as well as some, but I knew him to be genuine, loyal, and all-in with the people he cared about.
We wish we had more time with him. Things like this are so hard to understand, but we trust that God sees the bigger picture. We pray Caleb is remembered for the goodness he brought into every room, and that his life draws many closer to the Lord.
Praying for comfort, peace, and protection over all who love him.

Mason, who is a firefighter in Lodi, CA, learned of Caleb’s death through professional networks and shared word with us here. We’ve reminisced about shared family times in the boys junior high years and can only hope these and the many other memories provide all comfort in the time to come. You will remain in our thoughts.

Caleb was always such a sweet kind-hearted person! He was always so nice to me in school. I lost one of my sons 6/26/25 and although he was much younger than Caleb, losing a child is a very hard thing to endure. My heart is with you all! I bet Sawyer has talked his ears off, he was very fond of power-lines and utility trucks but I made him a Valentine’s Day box for his party last year and it was a fire station box with fire trucks and he absolutely loved it
