Mr. Sweck is at peace now at a better place but will be missed here. I grew up playing with Chris and have such fond memories of Mr. Sweck. The best thing I remember is Mr. Sweck trying to get me to laugh, teasing me and trying to get me to open up since I was so shy. My family and I send our deepest sympathies to the entire Sweck family but especially to my old friend, Chris, and his family, Anne, Brendan and Talia.
