The Walker family is finding ways to honor their little boy.
Merritt & Style blogger Laura Merritt Walker and husband David Walker shared how they celebrated the life of their son Callahan, who died at age 3 from a tragic accident in early February.
"Callahan's celebration of life service was so incredibly special," Laura shared on Instagram Stories Feb. 26 alongside an image of Callahan. "We were surrounded by family and friends from every chapter of our lives. The distance people traveled to help honor our precious baby boy has humbled us to our core."
The lifestyle blogger also thanked her community for coming together and honoring of her youngest son.
"Thank you for sharing your own hearts and pain with us," she continued. "You all have been with us on so many mountaintop moments, and we want to thank those of you that were/ are willing to show up for us in the most excruciatingly painful valley as well."
Laura shared a look at the program for the celebration of life event, which featured a eulogy from Laura and husband David titled, "Reflections of CalBear's Big Little Life."
While the family has not provided further details on the toddler's death, the Frisco Texas Fire Department previously confirmed to E! News it responded to a drowning call involving the Walker family, but declined to provide further information.
Laura and David—who also share sons Beckham, 10, and Chamberlain, 7—thanked fans for their support shortly after Callahan's passing.
"We are humbled by the love and support of this community," they wrote on Instagram Stories Feb. 18. "Thank you for your love, messages and prayers for the whole family. We cannot tell how grateful we are and how they are helping carry us through the impossible. With all our love and appreciation, Laura & David."
