To Mrs. Swift's Family ...
I too am sorry to learn of her passing. I remember her when she was serving as one of our Park Commissioners and always a community activist in Ypsilanti Township. She was bright, funny and did her part of making us a better community. In her 93 years, she has touched many hearts, one of which is mine. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this sad time and I thank you for sharing her with so many of us. Sincerely ...

So sorry for your loss. Garnet was such a fun loving person always smiling and happy. She attended Immanuel Baptist some times and came to our rummage sales. I know she will be missed by all who loved her.

To the Swift family, I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful mother. She was a very very special lady. She will be missed in the church, neighborhood and mostly by her wonderful family. May God help to heal your hearts.

Some of my earliest memories are of Aunt Garnet and Grandma R. playing London Bridge with me and the boys. Though we didn't spend much time together, I admired her strength of character and her devotion to Grandma R. in her declining years. I am so sorry for your loss, but I know the angels in heaven are looking for earplugs now that the Rhinehart gang is all together again telling stories.
