Caleb Zachary Merrill passed away in the arms of family on April 19, 2024. Each of his 34 days on earth was a gift to his loved ones here. Caleb’s life was a sermon on peace and faith. Now passed, he will continue to bless lives, only freer and in an even more heavenly home.
Caleb is the son of Jeff and Jessie Merrill. He is survived by four siblings: Danny, Ellie, Grace, and Noah. A sweet reunion in heaven is greatly anticipated.

Sometime, we’ll fall on bended knee,
And feel there, graven on His hand
Sometime with tearless eyes we’ll see
What, here, we could not understand.
So trust in God through all thy days;
Fear not, for He doth hold thy hand;
Though dark thy way, still sing and praise,
Sometime, sometime we’ll understand.

Jeff and Jessie, Caleb is so so beautiful. That handsome face and those beautiful eyes and chubby cheeks. We are devastated for the enormous hole losing him has created. You can tell by looking at those photos that he was just full of peace and goodness. We love you so so so much and are so grateful we are family. Sending lots of prayers your way, love, Jay and Cindy Andersen
Heavenly Father is really there, and hears and answers every prayer. Your faith in your Father in Heaven was a true example to me. Thank you for letting me be a small part of Caleb’s earthly life. #Familesareforever 🩷 Karena
