“Everybody Loves Raymond” star Sawyer Sweeten’s death at only age 19 has been deeply felt by his co-stars.
Ray Romano, Patricia Heaton and Doris Roberts were among those expressing their condolences about the young actor’s shocking death. Sweeten was visiting family Thursday in Texas when he died in an apparent suicide.
Romano and Heaton played his parents Ray and Debra Barone on the Emmy-award winning sitcom, which ended in 2005 after nine seasons.
Sweeten and his twin brother Sullivan portrayed their sons Geoffrey and Michael, with their older sister Madylin playing their TV sister Ally.
“I’m shocked, and terribly saddened, by the news about Sawyer,” Romano said in a statement
“He was a wonderful and sweet kid to be around. Just a great energy whenever he was there. My heart breaks for him, his family, and his friends during this very difficult time.”
The actor’s TV mom Patricia Heaton took to Twitter to express her grief.
“Sawyer Sweeten was a funny and exceptionally bright young man. He is gone from us far too soon,” she wrote.
“The entire cast of #EverybodyLovesRaymond is in shock. Prayers for the Sweeten family.”
Doris Roberts posted a heartfelt message on her Facebook page about her young co-star.
“It is with great sadness that I learned the news that Sawyer Sweeten, who played my grandson … died at his family’s home in Texas,” she wrote.
“He was a very sweet young man who will be dearly missed,” she added.
“Make sure your loved ones know how much you care about them, and please check in with them if you haven’t touched base with them for a while. It’s very important to keep in touch.”
Sweeten’s sister Madylin similarly urged fans to reach out to loved ones in the wake of the tragedy.
“At this time I would like to encourage everyone to reach out to the ones you love,” she said. “Let them have no doubt of what they mean to you.”
Phil Rosenthal, the show’s creator, said in a statement to Deadline that the Sweeten siblings were a “charming, integral part of our TV family.”
“They never failed to make us laugh, or remind of us how we feel about our own children. We are terribly sad to hear this news and our hearts go out to Sawyer’s family.”
