Caleb died at the age of 12 with his mother, sister and their devoted Australian Shepherd in a fire at their home in rural Madison County in 2008. Approximately one year after their deaths the fire was ruled an arson by the State of Ohio Fire Marshal. This is still an open case. Caleb was a vibrant, fun-loving young boy with an ornery giggle, a profound faith in God and a zest for life. Caleb loved sports and hanging out with his buddies. Caleb was an accomplished athlete in football and baseball. He made many friends at the Grove City Christian School and in his church. He left us all broken-hearted, but thanks be to God Almighty that we will be with him again someday!
