He was preceded in death by his parents; a daughter, Janice Rebecca Swanger; sisters, Edith “Fan” Buchanan, Mamie Baldwin, Edna Burton and Lea Walker; brothers, Joe, Cliff and Glenn Swanger; one half sister and three half brothers. A service to celebrate his life will be held at 2:00pm on Saturday, July 7, 2018 at Peoples Memorial Christian Church by Pastor David Grinnell and Rev.
