John Swenson was a beloved friend and father who will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. John was a steadfast champion of those he cherished as a consistent, thoughtful ear, a generous supporter, and a kindhearted, loving presence. He was a friend to all and would always be open to the challenge of a good game of cards or chess as he was a skilled opponent in any circle. His daughters will forever miss the unconditional love he offered.

You are important to a lot of people, you are important to me.
