Caleb attended Delphi Community High School, where he excelled at playing football, and later completed his GED. Caleb currently worked for Girtz Manufacturing of Monticello, and previously for Alford’s Tree Service of Lafayette and All in Properties Solutions of Colburn. Caleb enjoyed fishing and boating on the river, the Carolina Panthers football team, anything outside, sitting around a fire pit hanging with his friends and family. He had a wide range of music he listened to, sometimes his friends scratching their heads wondering…. really? Caleb had a passion to help those with any addiction, to be fed, clothed, or sheltered. He would do whatever it took to help that individual get the care they needed. Literally giving them the shirt off his back, or the last dollar he had if it would help in any way. Caleb dearly loved his entire family and close friends. He dearly loved his son Eli and all the time they could spend together.
