Caleb Keith Bruggeman
01-02-2013

On January 2, 2013 we lost one of our most precious gifts from God. Caleb Keith Bruggeman was born in Luverne, MN on November 3, 1997 to Patrick and Greta Bruggeman. Caleb's light was immediately visible to any one who saw him. He enjoyed virtually every sport on earth but had a particular passion for football, at which he excelled. He loved music, dancing and his friends, who have said that Caleb was always making them laugh. Our beloved son was also a wonderful brother to his siblings, Victoria and Jackson. While we will miss him terribly, we take comfort that Caleb recently asked Jesus Christ into his heart and began declaring that he was now a mighty warrior for Christ. We know he has gone home to his Heavenly Father!
