Sterling Leonidas Sweet, 21, of Irvine CA, passed away Sunday, August 30th at his home. He was born in Bedford, TX, on March 19th, 1994 to Gordon and Elizabeth Sweet. Sterling attended University High School and attained his G.E.D. He was studying computer programming at Irvine Valley College.

Sterling was fiercely loyal. There was nothing he would not do for his friends, sharing whatever he had, always ready to cheer people up, or offer help to anyone who needed it. He once abandoned his plans for the day and travelled three hours by bus to bring home a stray kitten he had rescued from the middle of a busy street.

Sterling was preceded in death by his father Gordon L. Sweet III, and his sister Ashton H. Sweet. He is survived by his sister Rachel Sweet; his brothers Caden Sweet and Tori Fallis; and parents Elizabeth Sweet and David Pidcock.

A viewing will be held on Saturday, 12th of September between 12pm and 2pm, with a memorial on Monday, 14th of September at 7pm, at O'Connor Mortuary in Laguna Hills.
