Charles Paine Obituary

Charles Francis Paine (Chuck), 58, of Venice, Fla., passed away suddenly on Monday July 27, 2020.

Chuck was born on February 15, 1962, in Long Island, N.Y., to Joy & Charlie Paine. The family moved to Florida in 1972, where he graduated from Venice High School, excelling in baseball & football making many lifetime friends thru the years.

As time went on Chuck became a local bartender & manager at many local restaurants including Purple's, Bogey's and Prime Serious Steak House becoming a friend to all who met him; many which joined our family for the holidays.

Chuck enjoyed playing softball, golf, going to Florida State & Rays games, spending time with his friends & family, but there was nothing he loved more than his children Cory & Andrew Paine. They were the sparkle in his eyes, the lights of his life. They made him complete and to top it off, Cory gave him a grand child in 2018...Sweet Benji. Chucks enormous love of family was extended to Miles Federico, Marina Garcia-Estrada, Rachel McGill and Mark & Margarite Costanza.

A man who will be missed by all & forever be remembered with a smile on his face, a bevy of sports knowledge, just an all around great guy.

Chuck was preceded in death by his mother Joy Paine, Father Charles, Sister Traci Paine Bartram, brother in law Andy Anderson and his Brother Ric Paine. He is survived by his Amazing children, Cory Paine and Andrew Paine, Grandson Benji, His Sisters Terri (Mike) Duffey, Cindi (Andy) Anderson, Christi (Jim) Bennett, Kerri Paine (Eric Geistert), all of his nieces and nephews, his two dogs Bailey & Scrappy, and many friends who loved him dearly.

A service will be held at a later date for all friends and family, in lieu of flowers Chuck held the Jessica Costanzo Scholarship Fund, Inc. Very dear to his heart, you can donate at https://jessicacostanzoscholarshipfund.com/. Go Rays!

Chuck was one of the 1st person I met when I moved from Cincy,OH to Florida in 1986. He took me under his wing so to speak and showed me around Venice. He was a true blue friend and we even played softball together for O'Henry's Pub. You will be truly missed my friend. RIP Chuck you meant so much to so many people and the world lost a great person!

Something like this I don't think any child is ready for, no matter your age no matter the circumstances loosing a parent is a very difficult loss and something I obviously wasn't prepared to have to do, but I am so thankful to have had you as a father, you were the best dad I could ask for, you were always my sense of security and stability, you taught me how to do right, how to be responsible, how to be a good person, how to set goals, and most of all you have guiding me all of my life, and that's why I'm able to be the mother I am to benj (Ben) because you refused to call him Benji or benj it was always ben to you. I will miss you dearly, every single day I will find happiness in the little things that remind me of you and the man and father you were to me and Andrew. Everyone that had the pleasure of meeting you loved you and I am lucky that I got to call you dad and my son to call you grandpa. I'm sad that our time together is no longer and that I can't just pick up the phone right now especially because you were always my go to person when life had me going through turmoil you were always there, always there for me in any way you could and always gave me the extra boost of encouragement I needed when life had me down, so loosing you means digging dip for that strength you always taught me. Thank you Dad for all that you did for us, thank you for being the wonderful man I got to call my dad. I love you and I'll miss you deeply, but I'll find comfort in knowing that you aren't in pain and that your looking down at all of down here. Rest easy Pops, thinking of you xo
