Swing to help bring peace and serenity.

Robert sat on my porch swing just a short time ago while I fetched a mosquito lantern from the garage for him to have. He loved the swing saying he could fall asleep right there and he could picture he and Kim on the swing together. Please accept that swing which hangs on my back porch, as my gift, to honor Robert and bring some peace to all of you. Please take the swing when you feel ready.

He was a kind man with a gentle soul. He passed on his work ethics to his children and grandchildren such a great gift on his part in this world today. I will miss him. I send heartfelt condolences to all of you.

With love and caring,

Barbara Nowak (Fair Haven, Vt.)
