Sandra E. Swanson

Born July 25, 1944, in Corry, PA, she was the daughter of Murlyn and Frances Slayton Jukes.

Prior to her retirement, she was employed by Lutheran Social Services as a nurses aide. She enjoyed crocheting and made many beautiful blankets and afghans. It gave her great joy to be able to help those who were truly in need.

She and her husband were former members of St. Timothy Lutheran Church, Bemus Point, whom they traveled multiple times for mission trips to Honduras. Most recently they had been attending Wiltsie Community Church in Russell, PA.

Surviving are her husband Thomas Swanson, whom she married in November of 1963; five children Craig (Jill) Swanson of Ohio, Chantele Miller of South Carolina, Candace Galloway of California, Curt (Laura) Swanson and Kelley (Jimbo) Manno both of Frewsburg; 11 grandchildren Erik (Jessi) Swanson, Emily (Jon) Frentz, Brianna (Earl Bowman) Streed, Braden Streed, Brittany (Jake) Youngberg, Rachelle (Steve) Soto, Reanne (Frank Fellini) Mistretta, Karlee (Daniel) Freeman, Garrett Swanson, Gavin Swanson and Adam (Ryann) Sadowski. Plus, nine great grandchildren with one on the way. Also surviving are her two sisters, Sharon (Michael Boogman) Morris of Oregon, and Shawn Altman of Ohio.

She was preceded in death by her parents and a nephew Joshua Jukes.

A private service will be held at the convenience of the family. Burial will be in Maple Grove Cemetery, Frewsburg.

Memorial donations may be made to Wiltsie Community Church.
