Kaleb was a very gentle-hearted boy. He was kind and loving, found a solution to every problem. Kaleb inspired many and did it with a kind heart. He had his way with words and made sure everyone was included. Kaleb is deeply missed and will never be forgotten in our hearts. We love him and know he is in a better place now. He was the only cousin from my dad´s side I knew and I miss him so very much. Kaleb inspired me to play basketball and to stay strong.
To Abeba and Negasi, my condolences. May God give you strength to cope with your loss.Stay strong like he would want you to be.

Kaleb had a light presence around him, and was a very genuine and caring person. He was passionate about the things he was doing, and that made him a very unique and amazing person. He is with our Heavenly Father, and now we have a new intercessor in Heaven :) I pray the family receives comfort during this time.

Kaleb, you will be truly missed. I can't believe you are gone already. I missed our good political conversation. You were so thoughtful, energetic, and optimistic. You were a truly remarkable young man and I am honored that I got to know you a bit, even thought it was so short. Rest in peace. I know you are in God's presence right now, where you no longer have to suffer anymore. I will be looking forward to meeting you up in Heaven one day.

Mr. and Mrs. Beyene, my condolences. I pray God will provide you an abundance of comfort. Kaleb was just an amazing young man with a great smile. He will be missed by many and left positive impact on the conservative club at UMD and on his peers and friends too.

Kaleb was a classmate and friend of mine at the University of Maryland. We had an Economic´s class together and were in several of the same clubs. He had an outstanding understanding of politics and I´ll miss our discussions on the latest current events.


He was a natural leader in the classroom. I remember in the week leading to our Macroeconomics exam he coordinated a group chat with the entire class and proceeded to host a study group which helped many of us pass the challenging course.

May the Lord Jesus be near to his family in this time.

I first met Caleb when he was just 8 years old. I was amazed by how gentle he was and how deeply he loved his family. After my son came to us we had the opportunity to see Kaleb several times during Thanksgiving. My son and Caleb were so happy to have met each other . I will never forget the joy they shared . now that kaleb has become a child of God and has been called home , I know that God is holding him in his hand . Caleb will always live in our hearts
May God give strength to my brother Negasi and my sister Abba during this difficult time

Please know that you are not alone. Your colleagues and I are here to support you in any way you need.

Words can´t truly capture the pain of losing someone so special, but please know that you will always be remembered in our hearts. Your spirit and laughter touched so many lives, and I feel grateful to have known your Dad.

I pray that God wraps His arms around your family, bringing them comfort and peace during this incredibly difficult time. You will be missed more than words can say.

Dear Kaleb,

I had the joy of knowing about you through your dad, who spoke of you often with so much pride and love. From the time you were a little boy, I learned how sweet and caring you were-how you wished to be "as short as your pals," how you promised to limit your time playing Wii without reminders, and how you always accompanied your mom to church, never wanting her to go alone.

You were cute, self-disciplined, and full of heart. The kind of child who made everyone around you smile. Your dad was-and always will be-so incredibly proud of you, in every way.

It´s heartbreaking that you left us so young. But even in your short time here, you left behind a lasting light. You will always be a cherished son, held dearly in your parents' hearts.

May you rest in peace in heaven, Kaleb. You are loved. You are remembered. You are missed.

You will be missed, Kaleb.

Thank you for changing my world. When I came to this country, everything felt overwhelming. I could barely speak English, struggled to connect with others, and often felt like an outsider. When my parents dropped me off that day, I had no idea how much my life was about to change.

I remember how you, me, and Kerod used to ride bikes, play video games, and watch movies together. At the time, it just felt like fun. But looking back, those moments meant so much more. They helped me learn English, adjust to a new life, and most importantly, feel like I belonged. Those weren´t just games or movies-they were a bridge to a new world. And you were right there beside me through it all. That´s something I´ll never forget.

Even on the worst days, when nothing seemed to go right, you had a way of making everything feel okay. If I could talk to you one more time, I´d tell you how much you meant to me and how deeply I´ll miss you.

I wish we had gone on that Ethiopian trip sooner. I could´ve introduced you to other cousins you´d never met-you would´ve loved them, and they would´ve loved you just as much.

No matter where life takes me, a part of you will always be with me-in the kindness you showed and in the bond we shared.

Rest easy, cousin. You´ll never be forgotten.

Dear Negasi and Abeba, my heart is filled with tremendous sorrow on the loss of your most beautiful son. I cannot imagine a loss of such a wonderful son. Please accept my most sincere condolences.
Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Although I never had the chance to meet him in person, our phone conversation three years ago left a profound impression of his kindness and warmth. He truly embodied the humility and goodness that my mom and others often spoke of.

Hearing about his passing was one of the most heartbreaking moments of my life; I never thought it would happen so soon. I want his parents to know that he will always be remembered with a lot of love and respect, and they should take pride in raising such an extraordinary young man.
May God provide them with strength during this challenging time. While his time with us was brief, I believe there is a reason for it, and I am confident that his legacy will live on through those who loved him.

It is truly heartbreaking to lose such a promising young person like Kaleb Beyene. I had the privilege of seeing him with his father, Negasi Beyene, a man who dedicated his life to defending Ethiopia and its cause. One of the most moving testimonies I heard during the funeral was from a neighbor, who spoke of Kaleb's deep love for Ethiopia- a love instilled in him from an early age. He not only cherished his country but also embraced its people with genuine affection whenever he had the opportunity. Kaleb would have grown to be a devoted Ethiopian, and his loss is felt not just by his parents, but by all of us. Negasi, I deeply feel your sorrow, and may God Almighty bless his soul.
