Obituary of Phyllis Ilene Swaren

Phyllis Ilene (Trusdale) Swaren died peacefully on July 10, 2018, in her 90th year after a long life dedicated to family, careers in nursing and church mission, and travel adventures. Her children Kristine (Malcolm Williams), Janis (Greg Burgess) and Stan (Julie Finley) were with her at her passing. She was predeceased by her husband, Rev Stan Swaren. Her grandchildren will miss her games and stories: David and Alex Honeywell, Kaija Izabella Swaren & Keji Kozolanka, Emma, Sophie and Jon Sanchez-Swaren. The family sends many thanks to the wonderful dementia-care staff at the Richmond Care Home and St Lawrence Lodge. In memory of Phyllis, we suggest donations to your own church, Canadian Baptist Ministries, or Doctors Without Borders.
