Aspen Jean Callahan

Aspen Jean Callahan 11-month old, beloved son of S’Ence J. McGee and Terrell L. Callahan, received his wings and went to be with God on November 29, 2020. Born on December 31, 2019 in Newburgh, Indiana, Aspen would light up a room wherever he was. His genuine smile and infectious laugh brought joy to anyone who was around him.

I’ll miss you every day from your three little teeth chewing on my hands to your big steps and loud voice filled with happiness down to letting you climb and step all over me. You made a big impact on my life entering this world and leaving it. I love you forever! – Love Mommy “Aspen was so cute and fun to be around. I miss him so much.” – Sister, Taylor “Aspen was so cute, I am sad that he is gone, but I’m glad he’s with God because God is a good person. – Brother, Aaron “I called you little preacher before you were born, not knowing you would actually look the part. You started talking at just two months old and I was amazed. I bragged about you all the time. You are absent from me in body but will forever be in my heart. I love you Preacher! Until we meet again. - Nah “Aspen, when God blessed you to come into this world, He sent us a Miracle. We called you Preacher because I believed God was going to bless you to spread His Word. But little did we know, you were the one who was the spreader in all our lives. You brought us so much Joy and Happiness. You will be greatly missed in our hearts. We love you -Granny and Grandaddy RIH. Aspen you were born in the winter and managed to represent the embodiment of spring. – Aunt Kneenah If you ever happen to come to me in a dream, I’ll do my best to give you a new nickname, some food, and a toy phone…since you always tried eating mine. You’ll always be missed and will be in all our hearts forever. Walking down the hallway doesn’t feel right anymore because I’m supposed to be hearing you and Chip’s whining and crying. Love you family. If you get a chance, come and visit your brothers, sister, parents, grandparents, and all your kin in their dreams as well. Love you family. -Anthony Gray, cousin A funeral service will be held 3:00 p.m. Friday, December 4, 2020 at Alexander West Chapel officiated by Elder Willie D.
