My deepest sympathies to the family of Mr Swadner. May the words at 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 be of comfort.

Sharon, I am so very sorry for your loss. I am praying God will give you peace and strength. Please let me know if there is anything I can do. Please call me even if it is just because you need someone to listen. Hugs for you and the boys.
