Silvia is creating this fundraiser for her friend Kieryanne Poole and her family as they face a heartbreaking loss no parent should ever have to endure.
On August 14, 2026, the Poole family received every parent’s worst nightmare.

Their beloved 20 year old son, Caleb Poole, tragically passed away following a devastating motorcycle accident in Lexington, Kentucky.

Caleb was born on June 2, 2006. He had just graduated from Technical College, where he worked hard to become a Diesel Mechanic.
He was incredibly proud of his accomplishment and was so excited about his future. He was supposed to begin the next chapter of his life with the United States Army next week.
He was excited.
He had dreams.
He had plans.
He had an entire life ahead of him.

Instead, his family is now faced with the unimaginable task of saying goodbye to their son.

Help Us Bring Caleb Home ❤️

Their immediate need is to bring Caleb back home to Largo, Florida and cover the unexpected expenses that come with this tragedy, including funeral and cremation arrangements, transportation, travel, cleaning out his apartment, storage, and a U-Haul to bring his belongings back to Florida.

These are expenses no family ever expects to face.

The family has already experienced significant medical and financial challenges.
A few years ago, Caleb’s parents moved to Largo, Florida, with their younger children, their 11-year-old son, Gage, who is chronically ill and medically fragile, so he could receive the medical treatment he needs that only Florida can provide.

Caleb’s mother is also a Disabled Veteran, a cancer survivor, and is currently recovering from her second stroke. Only a few months ago, she underwent heart surgery and is still recovering.

Now, in the middle of all of this, they lost their 20 year old son.

His older brother, Colin, is in shock. Caleb wasn’t only his brother; he was his best friend. They went to the gym together, had lunches together, had sleepovers, and shared the everyday moments that brothers do.

His younger sister, Roxanne (10 years old), is devastated and struggling to understand the sudden loss of her big brother.
The entire family will need time, support, and grief counseling as they try to navigate life without Caleb.

How Your Support Will Help
Our urgent priority is bringing Caleb home with his family.

* Funeral and cremation expenses
* Bringing Caleb home from Kentucky to Florida
* Travel expenses for the family
* Cleaning out Caleb’s apartment
* Storage expenses
* U-Haul and transportation of his belongings
* Lost income while the family takes time away from work to continue Gage’s weekly treatment.
* Unexpected expenses related to this tragedy
* Grief counseling and therapy for the family

No donation is too small.

If you are able to give, your generosity will help relieve some of the financial burden this family is facing while they grieve the unimaginable loss of their son.
Please share this fundraiser. Sharing can be just as powerful and may help us reach someone who can make a difference.

And we can surround them with love and support during the darkest moment of their lives.
Thank you and give the Poole family the support they need to begin this heartbreaking journey and keep his entire family in your thoughts and prayers.

Rest peacefully, Caleb.
You were deeply loved,
and you will never be forgotten.

❤️ June 2, 2006 – August 14, 2026
