Louis Charles "Chuck" Sharp's Obituary
Louis Charles “Chuck” Sharp, Jr. was born on 9/28/58 to Ernestine Glass Sharp and Louis Charles Sharp, Sr. and left this earth on August 4, 2019. He left behind a devoted wife, Melanie Landry Sharp, a cherished son, Dalton Sharp, and five grandchildren, Kristen, Christopher, Jamie, Brice, and Luna. He was preceded in death by two sons, Brandon and Kestin, along with his daddy, Louis Sharp, Sr.
Chuck grew up in Destrehan, Louisiana, and like most Southern Louisiana children, grew up surrounded by family. He had an older sister named Susan (Pulliam) and two younger sisters, Sarah (Parent) and Stacey (Liuzza). His first friends were his cousins, especially Bridgette Glass Brooks. He grew up adoring his hard-working daddy. Chuck followed in his daddy’s footsteps in bookkeeping and tax returns for small businesses and clients in and around Tangipahoa Parish, operating Riverbend Taxes in Hammond for the past decade plus. He loved Tulane football (also passed down from his daddy) and anything to do with seafood.
Chuck would want for all those who are mourning to instead celebrate his life. His zest for living was unmatched, and his love for his friends and family was nothing short of inspiring. Every room he entered was brightened by his laughter, stories, dancing, and humor. His legacy of life will live on throughout generations that will fondly recall him in an adoring manner, coupled with tales of “Uncle Chuck” and “Pawpaw Chuck”, which will bring to memory his deep voice of stories and twinkling eyes of laughter.
“A One, A Two, A Helluva Hullabaloo
A Hullabaloo Ray Ray
A Hullabaloo Ray Ray
Hooray-Hooray Vars Vars Tee Ay
Tee Ay, Tee Ay Vars Vars Tee Ay
Tulane!”
