Condolence From: Elizabeth
Condolence: My deepest heartfelt condolences to the Swartz Family. Losing ones we love is by far the most heartbreaking thing in life to bear. Two scriptures I find comfort in about the promise for the near future are John 5:28, 29, which promises that "the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will.. come out", followed by the beautiful time that Revelation 21:4 describes: "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore." A beautiful time our loved ones who are "sleeping" in death (John 11:11-13) will come back to life & to us right here on an earth of restored peace & health in the near future (Psalms 37:11,29), & we'll never have to worry about losing them again (1 Corinthians 15:26). I hope you'll find comfort in looking forward to the fulfillment of those promises as I do, & knowing he is not suffering but is at rest until you can hold him in your arms, healthy & happy, once again very soon, for all eternity.

Condolence: Often we loss loves ones to death and we feel hopeless not knowing how to cope. The Bible at Psalm 65:2 calls God the “Hearer of Prayers.” By praying to God he can give us “power beyond what is normal” to go from one day to the next.

Condolence: Im sorry to hear of Richards passing. Growing up in Leetown my father visited the Swartz farm often as Richard and my father were very good friends and I always welcomed the chance to tag along on those visits. I have a lot of good memories of Richard and the farm. Always a very pleasant man and always willing to answer my questions about the farm animals. The world needs more men like this. We will keep you in our prayers.

Condolence: To all of the family I am so sorry for your loss and may God's comforting arms of love and peace be with you and around you during this time. Dick was a wonderful friend to my dad and mom when I was growing up and my brother helped him with harvesting hay during the summer when out of school. God bless you all.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Phyllis. Take comfort in the knowledge that your loved one is whole again and with his Heavenly Father.

I enjoyed talking with him about milking the cows and hearing how very much he loved his family.

Condolence: Dear Phyllis and family,
So sorry to hear of Richards passing. I pray God gives you strength and peace to endure!!! He had a caring heart and a great sense of humor...which is something I remember when he and Phyllis would visit with my folks (Charles and Margaret Grove) through the years...BUT I was SO blessed to have them come and visit mom routinely when she was sick and I was there taking care of her. Their visits meant a lot to her...and to me as well. It meant I could laugh, chat and forget just for a moment that I was losing her. I have never forgotten what they did during that time....and I know the Lord saw it and blessed them!!! Rest now Richard...one day that trump will sound and you will be called home!!!! So blessed to call you FAMILY....hugs to you ALL!!!
