Geneva School District 304 reports the sad news that Josh Sweet, a Geneva High School senior, died Thursday, Aug. 1.

"Our thoughts are with the Sweet family during this difficult time, and as a school community, we share in this loss," School District 304 said in an email blast to parents and students at the school.

The Sweet family would like to share the following information:

Visitation will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 6, at Christ Community Church, 37W100 Bolcum Road, St. Charles.

A celebration of life will be held at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 7, at the church. Interment will follow at Oak Hill Cemetery in Geneva.

"Josh could usually be found wearing a hoodie and lacrosse shorts. His family asks that those attending Josh's services come as they are, dressing in relaxing attire, as Josh would have," District 304 said.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Josh's memory may be directed to Christ Community Church Benevolence Fund, 37W100 Bolcum Road., St. Charles, IL 60175.
