Dear Peg & Family,



I just received the The Siena church bulletin from St. Katherine's for September/October 2006, and was shocked to see John's name. We are very sorry for your loss. He called in March 2006 after the passing of my father in law (Jack Swaim) and it was great to hear from him, after many years.

I will always remember John for helping others. If someone needed something he would help you to obtain it. He was always full of energy, a positive force in the world. I also remember his love for his family, always speaking highly of his wife, children and grandchildren. We will keep John and your family in our prayers, thoughts and our hearts.



With our deepest sympathies,



John & Janet Swaim & Family

John was a good man and he'll be missed by many. He had a heart of gold and a truly original personality. I will miss his phone calls and his visits to the office very much. His memory will always be cherished.
