In Loving Memory Of Alice Swann

Stew & Alice Swann

Last week, I lost Alice, the love of my life for 35 years, following a four and a half year battle against ovarian cancer with truly inspiring grace and courage. But beyond all the things we shared together during these years, when we married, as her gift to me I became part of her wonderful and caring family, which sustains me and offers me encouragement now during this difficult time. It is during times like this that we come to realize what a blessing it is to have such people in your life, something which we can easily forget in the course of our day-to-day lives. It is this blessing that I cherish with all my heart, and something of which I will never lose sight.

In lieu of flowers memorials may be made to Levine Cancer Institute’s Stiletto Sprint.
