Llewellyn Swain Obituary
A devoted wife, mother and sister, Llewelyn found her greatest joy in the presence of loved ones. Her heart was fullest when she was surrounded by her family, especially during family gatherings-moments she treasured deeply and helped create with warmth and love.
Above all, Llewelyn shared a special bond with her daughter, Sarah Blake. Their relationship was a testament to unconditional love and mutual respect. She always said that being a mother was her life's greatest honor.
She was a daddy's girl and the apple of his eye. She attended Fike High School and East Carolina University where she was a cheerleader at both. Her brothers would say that she was the best athlete in the family.
She leaves behind a legacy of kindness and love that will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
She was preceded in death by her parents Bill and Faye Williams. She is survived by her husband Cameron Swain, daughter Sarah Blake Moss (Tyler), step-daughters Brittany Swain and Christy Skaggs, brothers Billy Williams (Julie), Gene Williams, John Williams (Vondia), Kent Williams (Robin), grandchildren Anthony Ivey, Justin Moss, Brianna Ivey, Jase Moss, Reelin Ivey, nieces Austin, Raquel, Sydney, Alexa and Liza Williams, and nephew Will Williams. She also leaves behind her beloved dog Charlie Girl.
A celebration of her life will be held August 23, 2025 at 2:00 pm at Rivercrest Baptist Church 1510 Campostella Road, Chesapeake, Virgina.
Rest in peace Ludy, love your brothers.

We were cousins and I would babysit this tribe on occasion all five of them. I loved Llewellyn so much and I loved going to their house, so filled with love and happiness! She had a huge heart and soul! I pray my sweet Lucy Lockett as grandma would call her, is dancing before her mother, father and grandparents in heaven! RIP Llewellan

I remember her at Fike High School she was always very nice person. We weren't close but I remember her well. I always remember her in her cheerleading uniform getting into her car after school. She was a very vibrant person full of energy

I am so sorry for your loss. I went through school with her, starting 1st day of grade school. I'll never forget when they called names in the auditorium, because there was also a Linda Williams and when Llewellyn 's name was called...Linda and I thought it was her name called...but it was Llewellyn's. We laughed over that for years! After Fike graduation, I lost contact with her. God bless all the family and friends she's left behind; but we'll all reunite when we're called home.

I've known Llewellyn my whole life. My regret is living so close to her the past few years and not connecting. Her Mom was a patient of mine and we talked of her often. Rest pretty lady
