I started 3rd grade at Central Elementary in Batesville in 1976 . Chuck was one of the first people that I met . He was always laughing and joking and I considered him my friend and still do even though I haven't been around him much though the years. I talked to him in 2016 at the high school reunion and he was still the same Chuck Sweet I knew as a kid. Genuine, kind human being. Praying for the family. May God bless you all. Amen

My thoughts and prayers to the entire family.
Chuck was a dear friend of mine and I will cherish my memories of the times we shared hunting and fishing and sometimes just being a little crazy. Chuck was a loving and selfless man that would do anything for anybody.
Chuck and I talked many times about our faith in Jesus Christ and being fellow brothers in Christ knowing that our eternity is in Heaven. I’m proud we have that assurance and to know we will meet again one day.
Love ya Chuck!

It is with a heavy heart that we have to say ‘see you later’ to such an amazing friend! Chuck was a great guy and was always the jokester! Always loved to see him pulling up the drive to just stop in and say hello! We had many hilarious times out on the lake, you will never be forgotten but you will be eternally missed!
I have learned a few things about grief. It is not a temporary feeling but rather an eternal one with many changing seasons. Grief hurts in places that are hard to point to because the pain in your heart overflows into every other crevice that exists inside of your body. Sometimes grief longs to be held and pushes you away at the same time. It runs for both freedom and shelter. It wants to heal but without letting go. Grief lands upon your chest whenever and however and wherever it chooses. It is not bound by space or time or distance and I can guarantee you that it will always find a way to come to the surface. Grief lays its weary head down and waits for rain. For sun. For wild winds. For peace-oh precious, precious peace. Grief reminds us that death is not a goodbye. But the longest and hardest “see you later”
Ullie Kaye
So we will ’see you later’, Chuck, and when we do what a joyous reunion it will be! We love you and will miss you! Christina, we love you and we are here for you if you need us we are a phone call away!
