Caleb Wade LeBruno was born April 19, 1999, alongside his twin brother, Zachary. The two never spent a day apart.
Caleb grew up in Osceola County, Florida. At just 13 years old, he joined the Explorer’s Program with the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office, where his love for law enforcement began. Caleb’s motto was always “Protect and Serve.” He believed in it so strongly that he even had it tattooed when he was 16, with his momma’s permission.
Caleb quickly began pursuing his career in public service. He worked in 911 dispatch in Sequatchie County and also joined the volunteer fire department. Determined to serve, Caleb put himself through the Law Enforcement Academy at Cleveland State Community College. After graduating in 2020, he completed his post certification with the Grundy County Sheriff’s Office under Sheriff Clint Shrum.
In 2022, Caleb joined his new law enforcement family with the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office and became a member of Delta Team. Hamilton County helped him grow into the man he was meant to be, encouraging him to step outside of his comfort zone and continue developing as an officer.
Caleb had many big dreams for his future in the department. He hoped to become a Fi****ms Instructor and a Field Training Officer, always striving to make a difference in the department, the community, and in the lives of everyone he encountered. He had already been accepted into the Instructor Development class and was scheduled to attend the Fi****ms Instructor’s course later this year.
Caleb was always willing to lend a helping hand and was someone you could depend on. His momma lovingly called him her “Eeyore”—a tough exterior with a soft and giving heart, always saying he wanted to hug a black bear.
Zachary was truly his best friend. They loved doing everything together, especially gaming.
Caleb was a private person, but once he let you in, you had a friend for life—someone who would always have your back.
He loved sharing stories about his day with his parents, always asking for “one more minute” to tell them about his shift. Caleb loved his family deeply and was deeply loved in return.
His last TikTok repost said, “You’ll never regret telling someone you love them.”
Caleb is survived by his momma, Hope LeBruno; his dad, Mike LeBruno; his twin brother, Zachary LeBruno; his sister, Victoria; his aunt and uncle, Mea and Sam Figueroa; his cousin, Nikki Truilizio; his grandmother, Mary Oliver; and his Grandma Sue.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Christ Family Church at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, March 10, 2026 with Rev. Joe Sanchez presiding.
