"Amazing grace! how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch; like me! I once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now I see. Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved; how precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed.

Patricia Gail Nash Swain entered peacefully into eternal rest at her residence on July. 21, 2025. She was the daughter of the late Charles Frederick Nash and the late Emma Laura Ward.
