Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord

Keith Swanson, beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, son, businessman and friend died suddenly on January 2, 2006.

Keith's joy, humor, and sense of hospitality made it a delight to spend time with him, and he had a gift for making each person feel like a treasured friend. Keith taught us many lessons about what marriage should look like as he made it his life's work to devote himself to his bride, Trudy. A convert to the Faith, Keith's personal relationship with Christ was his motivation to share his gifts generously through good times and bad. He had a special love for the Presence of Christ in the Eucharist and was a regular adorer at both the Church of Saint Paul and at St. Henry's in Perham. Knowing Keith has enriched our lives in a thousand ways and he will be greatly missed. The Swanson family would appreciate your prayers.
