Sterling Alexander Chambers of Plano, Texas passed away March 11, 2021 at the age of 20. He was born on July 25, 2000 to Carolyn (Weber) Chambers and Charles “Marcus” Chambers in Plano, Texas. Sterling was a 2019 graduate of Bending Oaks High School in Dallas, Texas. He was a thriving student of Finance and Economics at the Zarb School of Business, Hofstra University. He played electric guitar in the Hofstra Pep Band and was an active participant in the Ambiguity Improv Club.
Sterling was not just gifted, he was a gift. He had so many talents it would be impossible to list them all, and he never failed to practice them with hard work and modesty. He was a talented musician, writer, and actor, quick-witted and funny, but always kind. He loved to have interesting conversations and was a very good listener. He was a friend to many, and the love he received is only matched by the love he had to give. The world has been robbed of the many things he had yet to accomplish. He is a very special spirit who will live on through all of us.
He is survived by his mother, Carolyn Chambers of Plano, Texas; father, Marcus Chambers of Dallas, Texas; grandmother, Rona "Mimi" Chambers of Dallas, Texas; chosen sister, Elizabeth Prince and wife, Josie of Terrell, Texas; and a host of other loving friends and family.
