Obituary
Trent Craig Cleveland, 20, of Crescent City, California, went home
to be with Jesus on March 5, 2026 in San Francisco, Ca. surrounded by his
family.
While our hearts are broken, we find peace in
knowing that Trent carried Jesus in his heart and leaned on Him for strength
through every season of life.
Trent was born March 4, 2006, in Crescent City,
California. He attended Redwood and graduated from Sunset High School in 2024.
Trent was a fighter his entire life. He faced
every challenge with courage and grace that inspired everyone around him.
Trent had a heart that made him truly special.
He was funny, always smiling, and loved making people happy. He was selfless
and thoughtful, always thinking of others before himself. Even near the end, he
continued to care about those around him, which says everything about the kind
of person he was. Trent could light up a room with his smile, never knowing if
he was smiling because he was happy, about to play a prank on you, or just
reassuring everyone he was “fine”, one of his favorite responses to doctors and
family…even when he wasn’t.
Trent loved being outdoors. Fishing was his
greatest passion, and he loved spending time at the river. He also enjoyed
hunting and going on drives. Some of his favorite memories were fishing and
taking river trips with his brother Rylen and cousins Blake and Bryce, who were
raised like brothers to him.
Trent loved spending time with family. His
grandmother, Sheila Cleveland, played a very special role in his life. She
raised and cared for Trent and made sure she was by his side at every
appointment and hospital stay. She was not only his grandmother, but Trent
always said she was his best friend.
When he was younger, Trent played baseball and
basketball. He was also a proud fan of the San Francisco Giants, Golden State
Warriors, and San Francisco 49ers.
Trent’s life touched many people, and his memory
will live on in the hearts of everyone who loved him. Although we wish we had
more time with him, we take comfort in knowing that he is now whole, at peace,
and resting in the presence of the Lord.
Trent is survived by his grandmother Sheila
Cleveland; father Tyson Cleveland and stepmother Julia Scott-Cleveland;
siblings Rylen Cleveland (Courtni Hubbard) and London Cleveland; aunt Chelsea
Cleveland (Troy Cairns); cousins Blake Marlin (Reese Parsley), Bryce Marlin,
Mikaila Marlin, and Liam Marlin; mother Randi Cook; and many other loving
family members and friends.
He is preceded in death by his grandfather Craig
Cleveland.
