A University of Minnesota student died on Sunday at the age of 20.

Mitchell Hoenig was a junior in the College of Biological Science majoring in biochemistry. A memorial will be held in Coffman Union on Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the Campus Club room, according to an email addressed to members of CBS from Dean Valery Forbes.

According to an obituary published in the Star Tribune, Hoenig was from Plano, Texas, a member of Phi Gamma Delta (FIJI) fraternity and a TA at the University.

Hoenig?s family has set up a YouCaring page, where more than $17,000 has been raised for a scholarship and a memorial park bench at Lake of the Isles in Minneapolis in Hoenig?s honor.

As of Tuesday afternoon, the University could not share any details regarding Hoenig's death.

Mitchell Ryan Hoenig. May 27, 1997 - February 25, 2018. Mitchell has always brightened the lives of everyone around him. We know Mitchell as a very smart, loving, compassionate, and funny young man. Mitchell always wanted to be a doctor to save people's lives. While he no longer has the opportunity to pursue his dream, he continues to give to others. Mitchell's organs and tissues will save many lives and improve the quality of life for countless others. There will be a memorial in Minnesota and in Texas, with details to come. In lieu of flowers, please contribute to this memorial fund. We will dedicate a bench at Lake of the Isles in Minneapolis (a place he loved to ride his bike) and start a scholarship fund in Mitchell's memory. We welcome everyone to share their favorite stories and photos to remember Mitchell. Let us celebrate Mitchell's life and cherish the impact he has had on our lives.

We love you Mitchell, say hi to Doodles. Love, your parents, your sister, your family, and your friends.
