I just want to offer my condolences to the Swain Family from his old family at Navy Public Works Center Norfolk, now know as NAVFAC MIDLANT. He will be missed but not forgotten. His 30+ years here changed a number of lives. Our prayers will be with you.

Mrs Swain your husband (Swain or SNAP as I've always called him) because that's what he would call me as he walked into EAST COAST METAL where I work. He would come in and sit down and we would swap lies and talk about his latest bus trip or whatever was the latest gossip going on about our heating ang air conditioning friends that we both knew. Just two friends talking TRASH. See I've known him since back in the seventies when I worked at AUTOMATIC EQUIPMENT SALES and he was my customer then. I've also made sheet metal fittings for him and anyway I'm going to really miss that guy as I know a lot of people will also. Maam I'm very sorry about your loss and I hope you and your family will be blessed.
