A month has already gone by since the loss of your father Caleb. I was saddened at the time to hear of his passing. I read about the remarkable life Caleb lived from his obituary. I have only happy and good memories of Caleb from the first time we met in 1992 in Charlottesville. I´m grateful I got a chance to know him through our conversations about his latest construction projects and lighthearted storytelling during visits and family weddings. He was enjoyable and always very pleasant...

It was Caleb's southern charm, wicked sense of humor, and hard work ethic that I enjoyed the most. I always remember how well Caleb could tell a story. One of my favorites were the stories about the ghosts that lived in the White House on hill across from the Farmington Country Club. He always made me feel welcomed and for that I was grateful. Rest in peace dear friend.

I married into the Stowe family as wife of Tim Stowe, Caleb's nephew. We used to drive down from winchester about once a year to visit Caleb and Lynn. We always enjoyed our time with them and the family stories he would tell about he and Joel growing up on the farm during the depression. He also shared some poems with us that he had written including a humorous one about a groundhog that lived under his porch. We loved to talk about Jesus and the Bible and how important it was to him. When...

I met Mr. Stowe when he commissioned me to do a painting of Ringdancer. Our paths crossed again not that many years ago in Crozet, and he told me that she had raced in England. It was nice to reconnect. My sincere condolences to the family.

Such a great conversationalist. H was conversent on a great number of subjects--UVA sports and the Bible, history, politics. Never a bit dull We had some very long philosophical talks. He and Lynn loved their family. A life well lived

I always enjoyed my conversations with Caleb. He always asked how business was going and was very complimentary. He was very insightful. RIP Caleb

I worked for Caleb for a short time while he and Lynn were at the Ednam House. He was always happy with a good story to tell, and he loved his Lynn! After I moved on to another real estate position, Caleb stopped by to check on me to see how I was doing. After a few years, I moved on to another job, and once again, Caleb visited to check on me. He had a big heart for his family and others. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing, but what a life he lived and loved. His legacy will live on...

Caleb was an interesting character. It took me years before we could establish a positive relationship. We use to love smoking cigars together and talk about everything going on. He loved his family more than anything and provided him with great joy. In his older days, we reunited a few times and was always extremely proud that we were related even from far away. He was a strong man and I´m sure will be missed by his loved ones. Must be very hard for Lynn.... Condolences to the family.

He was definitely a special sort of guy. He gave me a piece of advice many years ago that I took to heart and profited by. A belated thanks to you, Caleb Stowe RIP Doug Long
