Dear June & family. It's been close to 50 yrs since I've seen most of you. My heartfelt condolences on your loss. Marcus coached me one summer in LL Baseball, and I would sometimes play with Marc Jr & the girls at your wonderful home. I didn't realize, at the time, Mr Swayze's past, or his then occupation, even tho I was an amateur comic book collector of sorts. Though Mr Swayze was a special person & celebrity of sorts, he made others (me) feel as though we were somebody. I doubt I can ever...

A great man from a great era..He and my father Larry Nola played music together in this great era of band music. My prayers and sympathy to all the family.

What a wonderful person Marc was! How lucky I was to know him as well as his wonderful family. Love all of you, Ann Severance

June, and all the family: My deepest sympathy to all of you. Marc was indeed a blessing to all of us, and his light will never go out! May you take
comfort from our Lord who sustains us
and gives us strength to go on. Love
and prayers to you all. Mary Nott

Mrs. Swayze, I just found out and was so very sorry to hear of his passing. I wish I had known sooner,I would have come to the service.You and the family will be in my thoughts and prayers!!
