I know this is late, but I was too scared to write something. I was still processing his death and it took me until a few months ago to really understand he's not coming back. Caleb was an amazing friend to me and everyone around him. He was so bright and had a lot of enthusiasm for the things he was interested in. He was an amazing singer and I even remember how in choir his intonation was amazing. He could make his voice high and low very well. He was an amazing singer and I always admired him for that.

Hey ummm I'm just founded out about this today on new years. You was a amazing person and I love that you would make me happy all the time and play the game with me but ik you was going through a lot and you never wanted to tell people. You would call me and tell me all about your day and I would love that you did that. You was one of the best thing in my life at that time and I wanted to say thx you for always being here for me when no one else was. I'm crying my eyes out rn but I know you are happy up there. I love you forever and always- tati

I am Evan Kremer, Lucy Kremers's father.  We were talking about  Caleb the other day. Please know that Caleb will always be in our hearts and minds.

The best memory I had with Caleb was when we went to Hershey Park together. I remember the quick stop to Dunkin Donuts in the morning, the long (but great) car ride, and riding all the rides with him. Caleb will always stay in our hearts and I’m praying for the Stavrou family as they go through this time.

Caleb was really a special guy. We went to school together at Rockburn and ELMS. He was always trying to get people to laugh and he was really funny. I remember how involved he was whenever he was in a conversation with someone. We didn't have a lot of classes together as we did in elementary school, but he would always participate in the classes that we had together. I can tell that Caleb had a lot of love for his dog, who he showed in class a few times. Caleb was a really good friend and he was always easily approachable and friendly. My deepest condolences to the Stavrou family and I send my prayers. Caleb will forever live on in our hearts. 

Dear Alex, Christy and family,

We miss  seeing  your handsome boy riding  his bike around the neighborhood.  We are so very heartbroken over your unimaginable loss.  We are holding you all close and in our daily prayers.   

Love, prayers and lots of hugs,

The Cumming Family 


He was always such an amazing friend, he always knew how to make me laugh. I remember always talking about star wars with him and hanging out outside together, he was so fun to be around and I’m really glad I knew him.

I’m so glad I came to the celebration today. Listening to all of you speak was just inspiring and I loved hearing your stories of Caleb. Eden, you have become a gorgeous, confident young woman and the best big sister, which is a huge responsibility. You handle it with grace. I’m so proud of that shy second grader I met many years ago. Even when I was your babysitter, you were all so close and it made my think of how a family should be. I’m so very sorry that Caleb is gone. 
-Eileen Nelson 

Dear Stavrou Family,
I am so sorry for your unimaginable loss. 
Caleb's enthusiasm and energy were contagious, and he made everyone around him smile! He will be remembered always.
Peace and strength as you make your way through the times ahead. 

Deepest condolences, 
Mrs. Miller

I loved having Caleb as a student. Some of my favorite works of art of his were the pop-up page he made about the 4 elements and how interested he was in representing those in his work and the dragon drawing he spent hours on last year, making tiny little scales. The conversations and his inquiry had such great depth.  He also came into my room for an entire year and put up the chairs after school.  I never asked. His life has so much meaning and I'm grateful to keep these memories with me like treasures and will be embracing the elements like he did on my nature excursions. Sending you all of the love and light... his is always beaming for sure. Bless you all. 

Dear Stavrou Family,

I am so very sorry to learn of this news. My thoughts and prayers are extended to the entire family (and will continue).

Mrs. Debbie Wolf

Dear Alex and Christy and family,

This is heartbreaking.  Caleb brought so much life to my fourth and fifth grade CPC Sunday school class.  The other boys and girls would noticeably brighten when Caleb entered the room.  Looking forward to sitting alongside Caleb as a fellow student, not teacher, at the feet of Jesus in His eternal Sunday school.

My deepest condolences and love for you and your family,

Peter

I ran into Paul one time at the mall and I was lucky enough to be introduced to his sweet little brother Caleb. We all decided to eat lunch together and in that short hour I got to spend with him, he managed to make us all laugh at every one of his jokes and continue to find little ways to make us smile. He took after his siblings in sharing his love and kindness to everyone he met. No words can describe how much Caleb will be missed but I know that is will be easy to find little reminders of how he impacted people’s lives and shed his light onto the world.❤️

Caleb was so diligent in helping to find our dog Tucker when he ran away. Without Caleb I don’t think we would have found him. 

Dear Stavrou Family,

We are heartbroken for your loss. I remember all the times Caleb would show up at our door, ready to play with our boys, or the times he would come to soccer with Alex.  He was always so sweet and in such a good mood.  We will miss his smile.  We are here for you in whatever small way we can help.   God bless you all. 

I remember when I first met Caleb, it was in period two math class in 7th grade. He was standing beside the door waiting for the teacher to let us in; he was smiling, you could see that he was excited to start class. About weeks later, when I began to feel comfortable in school, the teacher assigned us to the same table. We introduced each other, and after that day, we talked with each other every single day. We talked, on 2nd, 3rd, sometimes on 6th and lastly on 7th period. Whenever he didn't come to school, it would all feel different, like something was missing. Some morning he would pass by my house in his car with his mom. Even then, he was smiling. He was and still is my dearest friend. I have never met anyone like him. He taught me that you should smile and be happy for absolutely no reason. Every smile starts with a smile. The last time I talked to him was at the last class of FACS class. He was showing off his dogs and how one of them liked him better than the other one. He would tell me how proud of his dogs he was and how much Caleb loved his family; despite how he didn't get along with his sister, he still loved her so much. He was a very talkative person; if he didn't have something to say, I would know that something was on his mind. I am so fortunate to have found and met a person like him. I will never forget him, and he will always be on my mind.  

Kindest Regards, 
Annika (or as Caleb would say, Kion Pepper)

Dear Stavrou Family,

Our sincere condolences to you all.

We can’t imagine what you are experiencing and the pain you are suffering but the faith in God and the love for your family can give you the strength to go ahead. 

May God have your boy in glory and help you to accept and tolerate this immeasurable sorrow. 

We will always remember Caleb in our thoughts and prayers.

Gianpaolo & Mariantonietta 





Dear Stavrou Family,

Our condolences to you and your family at this difficult time. Our kids played with/against Caleb over the years in Elev8 hoops. He was a competitor and loved the game. He will be missed. RIP Caleb. 

--The Tran Family

Dear Stavrou Family,

I am so very sorry for the loss of Caleb. I had the pleasure of being Caleb's 7th Grade math teacher. In his year in my class, I saw him grow so much as a student, both personally and academically. I will forever cherish the many, many conversations we had about his classes, his family (he loved when his sister would help him with his math) and whatever game he was working through on his phone (only after I made him finish his math homework)! I'll never forget his smile or his bright personality. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers and I will continue to pray for comfort and peace for your family during this difficult time. 

-Rachel Hess

When I lived in Elkridge Caleb was always one of my bestfriends. I will keep your family in my prayers.

To the Stavrou Family,
We are so sorry for your loss and are sending you love and support. May your loving memories bring you comfort in these difficult times. 
Love, 
Stephen and Amanda

I am so sorry to hear that Caleb has passed, we were not best friends but I vividly remember having the most fun times with him in 6th-grade honors choir. He was an amazing singer and great fun with a flow of jokes. I wish the best to the Stavrou family in this time of sorrow and grief. Thank you, Caleb, for making the world a warmer place.

~Isak Hoffmaster

We are heartbroken now that our Caleb is no longer with us.   We will always remember his smile, how much he enjoyed watching and playing different sports, and all the good times we had together.  We appreciate the outpouring of support from so many people.  He will always remain in the hearts of our whole family.  We loved him so much.  Grandmom & Grandpop Stavrou

To the Stavrou Family,
I want you to know that Caleb brought such joy and light into our math classroom this year. In a year full of challenges, we could always count on Caleb to be there with his camera on, dog on his lap, smiling and chatting away. In the classroom, he truly uplifted all of our spirits, and his positivity and enthusiasm made a tremendous impact on all those around him. I wish you peace at this difficult time.
- Mrs. Donati

Dear Stavrou Family,
You are in my prayers at this time of great loss.  I hope it comforts you to know that "the Lord is good, a strong refuge when trouble comes.  He is close to those who trust him."  -Nahum 1:7  .
Thank God for Caleb being a part of our ELMS family.  

-Ms. Alston

To Caleb's family and friends,  

I wanted to send my condolences.  I went to school with Caleb and was in chorus with him during this school year.  I am so sad he will no longer be part of our choir team.  I always remember Caleb being so positive and he was such an amazing singer.  He will be missed very much.  I am keeping his family and friends in my prayers.  

Rest in Peace Caleb

Sincerely,  Ava Buckhalt 

We are so sorry for your loss. Caleb always had a smile on his face and loved spending time with family.

What a voice! We send our deepest sympathy and love. We pray for you to find peace and strength. Caleb will be missed.

Lacy has many  fond memories of him some of them on the playground on top of the jungle gym they would sit and talk during lunch break

Being side-by-side at the lockers every day

And all of the wonderful Pool parties they went to together .

Caleb was truly a shining star with his acting and singing and his faith for God. We were blessed I’ve known him..

May you all find peace in his memories in his life’s journey..💕💕

He always had so much energy, even early in the morning at the bus stop. He will be missed. 

With deepest sympathy,

I may have been in a grade above him but he was one of the greatest friends I ever had. He always made sure I was doing okay and always put a smile on my face. He truly made my days so much better.

I didn’t know Caleb very well but when I ever I saw him in class he was smiling and trying to brighten other people’s day! He was like a ray of sunshine in choir and was always a team player!

I remember that Caleb and I sat next to a each other in 10th period science class. He was always so nice and extremely smart, and always made the entire table laugh. He was a great friend and I’ll surely miss him. I hope he rests easy, and I am sending prayers to the family.  

I’m so sorry to the Stravrou family to hear the loss of caleb. He was always apart of my groups this year and he was such a hard worker. Rest in peace ❤️. 

Dear Stavrou family, 
I’m so sorry for your loss. I was never really close with Caleb, but I remember always seeing him in my homeroom class at the table across from me, and during study hall days. We would have those small interactions every morning, and thinking back on that, it makes me realize that it’s the little things we take for granted. Sending my thoughts prayers, and condolences to your family. May Caleb rest in peace. 

I am so sorry about the loss of Caleb<3 he was always so sweet and could put a smile on anyone's face that he comes in contact with. In chorus class, period 9 in 7th grade, Caleb would always make my cousin and I laugh. Sending prayers and lots of love to the Stavrou family. ❤️❤️

Caleb was such a nice guy and an amazing friend. Some of the memories whenever i think of Caleb is all the games we played on the  school bus and whenever we hanged out after school in the 7th grade. Also in choir I sat near him and he had such an amazing voice and also made the classroom better. I’m so sorry for your loss, and I send you love and prayers. 

         I am so sorry to hear the loss of Caleb, It was 6th grade when I first met him in science. We would sit next to each other and draw. We both liked drawing a lot. I taught him new drawing skills and when we moved on to seventh grade he got a lot better. But in 8th grade, virtual school came along and I stopped doodling in class.  I still had my skills but I was rusty. When we came back to school with masks and all, he would always say hi to me in the hallway and at lunch. I didn’t get a good enough chance to talk to him this year as we didn’t have any classes. I wonder how good drawing skills he would have by now? Caleb was a happy wonderful guy. 

Hello Stavrou family. I am one of his classmates at ELMS. I am beyond sorry about Caleb passing. Caleb was such a beautiful soul. In 7th grade english class with Mrs. Joseph, we would read stories by Edgar Allan Poe. Caleb always put the most effort into reading the stories as he could to make his classmates laugh. He succeeded. He put so much emotion into his chosen characters and it was amazing seeing his acting compared to others. His inspired me to do better and be better whenever I were to read stories and I will never forget him. 

Dear, Stavrou family, I am so sorry that Caleb has passed. Caleb was such a nice, caring, smart, talented, and funny boy! I wished I thanked him for making me laugh on the long bus rides. I remember he invited me to watch Annie, the play he was in. I feel so special that he invited me to the amazing play. He was so talented, and I could really see him going far. I feel great to call Caleb my friend. Thank you so much for all the fun memories we had together. Thanks for being my friend. I hope you guys are all safe and healthy. I am grateful I had him in my life.

   Sincerely, 
   Lucy Kremer 


I have nothing but fond memories of Caleb. He brought a light to the classroom and The Legacy School as a whole. He had a great smile that was truly infectious. He was bright and wonderful to teach. His singing voice was astounding. He had so much talent that he shared with our community. 

Dear Stavrou family - I am sending my deepest condolences and lifting up prayers. I never had the chance to meet Caleb, but if he was anything like his older sisters, he was kind, dedicated, and mature. I pray for strength and peace, for your family and send my love to you all. With great sympathy, Sara Crisera

I am so saddened to hear about Caleb's passing.  I had interactions with Caleb in 7th grade in one of my classes that I supported as a paraeducator.  Caleb was always kind and respectful during our conversations.  I am so sorry for your family's loss .  I will be praying for comfort and strength for all of you in the days ahead.   

I am deeply sorry for the loss of Caleb. He was a great student though I didn’t know him well when ever I saw him he was always smiling and making the most of every moment. I am sending prayers to the Stavrou  family. May he rest in piece.

Dear Stavrou Family,

I am so very sorry. 

Your son Caleb was such a wonderful young man and we were lucky to have known him.  We will never forget what a generous and caring friend he was to Lucy when she was a new Legacy student, going out of his way to watch over her. I am just so very sorry . 

Respectfully,
Lisa Turner
Lucy Kremer's mom 

It wasn't till today I heard that Caleb died and when I heard the news I was heartbroken because even though he wasn't my family I had that friendship like he was my very own brother. We had each other's backs all the time when in school and we were always able to talk to each other about anything and now he's gone and it pains me on the inside.

So I give my prayers to his family and hope that they can try to make it through this.

Please stay safe and have a Nice day.

I am so sadden to hear  of the passing of Caleb. He was such a delight to teach and he was a  amazing young man. Wishing your family love  and support during this difficult time!

Christie and Alex;

I am so sorry to hear about Caleb.  You are in my prayers.  I will always remember Caleb as the Ringbearer at Kerry's Wedding.  What a joy it was to know Caleb.  May the peace that passes all understanding keep you in the love and knowledge of Gods Love.

I will continue to pray for you two and your children (young adults now).  

David Maier 

I am so sorry to hear about Caleb's passing. I have fond memories of Caleb laughing and smiling in tutoring as we worked on his literacy skills.  He was always incredibly bright and empathic. I loved seeing him grow into a contemplative young man while maintaining his playfulness and wit.  No words could ever be sufficient to fully encompass my sympathies for your family. I will always remember the Caleb I knew, who was smiling and laughing and bringing joy into my little tutoring room. Your family is in my thoughts  and I am praying for your healing. ❤
