Mr. Swift, 67, of Pineville, entered eternal rest on Friday, March 6, 2026, in his residence surrounded by his loving family.

He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather who cherished the time he spent with his family. He enjoyed the outdoors, especially hunting and fishing, and could often be found relaxing while watching his favorite westerns.

A man of deep and unwavering faith, he loved the Lord and lived his life guided by that belief. Even during his time in hospice care, he made it a point to pray for his nurses, never letting them leave without offering them a prayer first.

He was known for being an excellent shot and took great pride in volunteering at the Woodworth Rifle Range, where he served as a Rifle Training Officer. His dedication, skill, and willingness to serve others left a lasting impression on those who knew him.

He will be remembered for his faith, his generosity, and the love he shared with his family and community.

He was preceded in death by one son, Christopher Michael Swift; his parents, David L. and Katie Swift; and one sister, Constance Swift.

Those left to mourn his loss and cherish his memory include his loving wife of forty-seven years, Martha Swift of Pineville; one son, Nicholaus Swift of Halle, Germany; two daughters, Angela Miller (Michael) of Scott, and Brittany Swift of Pineville; one grandson, Jonathan Swift of Halle, Germany; two sisters, Sharon Swift of Colorado Springs, Colorado, and Diane Swift of Utah; and a host of nieces and nephews.

A time of visitation will be held at Rush Funeral Home, Pineville, on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Visitation will resume in the Chapel of Rush Funeral Home, Pineville, on Thursday, March 12, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. until time of service.
