Benjamin "Ben" Charles Swisher, 41 years, of Monroe, MI passed away on June 19, 2023. The son of Terrence Swisher and Regina Eddinger he was born on January 18, 1982 in Toledo, OH.
A master painter by trade and an amazing one at that. He is the epitome of a perfectionist. Took his time on every job. Not only was he great at his craft he was very creative and artistic. He was the life of the party. He had an amazing ability to make you laugh. You could stay up all night just laughing at him being a goofball. Growing up you would always find Ben in peculiar situations and would manage to always sweet talk his way out of things. We believe that was from his huge heart. You couldn't help but love him. Ben definitely rooted for the underdog and befriended the undesirable. He was a lovable, sweet and respectful man. He truly was a people person, no one was a stranger. Ben loved to work out. Physical fitness was a challenge for him. It kept his mind focused on a goal. He also enjoyed helping others get in shape. He loved his 5 children with all his heart. He would always make up creative games and treasure hunts for them.
He is survived by his mother, Gina Eddinger; father, Terry Swisher; sister, Ashley Stranzin; the love of his life, Sandra Eaton and his children, Myles Swisher, Emma Swisher, Mason Swisher, Brooklyn Eaton and Benjamin Swisher. He was welcomed into the kingdom of God by his uncle Marty and uncle Glenn and because of this we all rest peacefully knowing the three of them are cracking jokes in heaven together.
A memorial gathering will be on Monday, June 26, 2023 from 3:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. in the Urbanski's Bedford Funeral Chapel 8300 Lewis Ave Temperance, MI 48182 where a memorial service will be held at 5:00 p.m. Cremation has taken place.
