Dearest Nancy and family,
It has been many years since we spent time together, but please accept my deepest condolences and love. I loved Caleb very much as I was growing up. He was always a combination of my cousin, my friend and almost like a big brother. He always knew how to make me laugh. I am so sorry that so much time passed in between and that we lost touch. Please know that you are all loved and thought of with the most fondest of memories.
Much love, your cousin April Quintal

Dear Nancy and Family,
I remember you well having spent my summers on Las Nubes with the Tabers (my sister) many years ago. I was sorry to hear the sad news about Caleb and hope you will find peace in knowing that he is seated with God. Blessings to all of you.

Dearest Nancy, Lisa, Lori, Leah, and Caleb. Barb Williams phoned us today with the very sad news. We remember the wonderful times with Caleb and your family on Las Nubes when we were raising our children: The Mother's Day breakfasts, the Rose Bowl, and everyone enjoying our precious moments in the cul-de-sac. Please know how sorry we are for you to lose such a vibrant and good man.

Love and sympathy from all the Tabers: Ellen, Al, Tony, Teresa, Sunny, and Rob.
