Ronald D. Swigart was born in Omaha Nebraska on March 7, 1957.
He passed away on November 18, 2024 surrounded by his loved ones. He is proceeded in death by his wife Cindy, his son Zach, his mother Elizabeth, his father Merle and stepmother Judy. He is survived by his sister, Diann Swigart-Barrett and husband Al Barrett, his stepdaughter Jessica Kraft and Tom Salter, granddaughter Lily Kraft, “Poopers” the cat and many extended family members.
Ron loved fast cars, loud music and helping anyone who needed a hand. Ron really had a heart of gold. However upon the passing of his wife and son in 2016 his gold heart became irreparable. Even in his deep despair over his loss he spent the remaining time on this earth doing everything he could for his Mom, sister, step daughter and countless friends and acquaintances that needed his help in someway. I’m sure there’s someone reading this right now who needed money for gas, needed a ride or just needed somebody to talk. Ron fulfilled all these requests and more. You could always count on Ron day or night. If not with a smile a sarcastic comment that would at least make you laugh.
We all have funny stories of our times with Ron and we asked that you share them amongst each other to remember the wonderful human being that he was to all of us in different ways. .
God saw him getting tired
And a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around him
And whispered “Come with me”.
With tearful eyes we watched him
Suffer and saw him fade away.
Although we couldn’t bear to lose him,
We could not ask him to stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard-working hands laid to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.
