We appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers. Caleb was a wonderful kid, a great friend and a beloved son. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

For those who don't know yet what happened, Caleb was boarding yesterday and while attempting a raley, he came down wrong and broke his neck. It was instantaneous and according to the doctors, he felt no pain.

There will be a memorial service here in Victorville at High Desert Church Friday, April 27 at 1pm. Anyone who wishes to come is welcome. We understand that many of you will be in Florida for the Wake Games, and we understand. Caleb passed away doing what he loved, and we know that he would only want you all to keep going.

Again, thank you for your kind wishes.

We thank you again for all your kind words. Thomas & I have let Mike know that all of you have posted and he is thankful that his son was so loved. There has been a myspace page set up for the family that has the funeral information and other items on it. Fell free to post comments as the family reads them daily. Here it is: http://www.myspace.com/wemissyoucaleb

If anyone has pics of Caleb that they want to share, you can post them here, or e-mail Thomas at davis51775@verizon.net. We are trying to get as many as we can for the family.

Thank you again for all your support. It is GREATLY appreciated.

Wow...

First, sorry to see you go so soon!

Second, I hope other riders will see this for what it was, a young man doing what he loved and dying while doing it. The ultimate honor to someone so devoted and honest to himself and others.

While his passing is tragic, he would want us all to achieve our respective goals... No matter how high!

I'm deeply saddened by the loss of this fellow wakeboarder. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. With this said, I'm very uninformed. Can someone please send me a pm with the details of what happened to Caleb.

(nuckledragger)

Our thoughts and prayers are with Caleb's family and friends. I am sorry for your loss.

(steph_minoglou)

Good men can never be harmed either in life or death. From what it seems you where a good man, who lived his dreams and did something that he loved alot in his life and death. Some say they would rather 'die' than never chase their dream and be lead by fear. From what it seems u chased that dream but unfortunately you had to die. Rest In Piece hopefully knowing that you found truth in wakeboarding and life!
