On July 17th 2025 I found my father, Craig Swain, deceased in his bed. I later learned he had heart disease and went into cardiac arrest in his sleep.

My father was the last piece to my little world. I don't know what I'm going to do without him.

He was an amazing father, husband, papa and friend. His goal was to always bring a smile or laugh to everyone around him. My dad has been my rock my whole life.. We were finally reunited after a year in early June. I know he is reunited with my beautiful mother, whom he continued to heavily grieve for ten years; he never got with another woman.

I know my dad is deeply loved by many.

Thanks to some amazing, good people I was able to get his ashes home to me now to bring him to my mother. As you can see from the uploaded photos his headstone was already made at my family's plot. Now I'm trying to rasie money to put him at his final resting place and engrave his passing date. Dad and I's roommate/close friend has not only donated what she could but has continued to be a blessing. She will be helping me with this. That's the other person you see on this fundraiser...

Those who knew and loved my dad know his absence hurts beyond words....

Dad and I don't have family left. My family is deceased. The only family that is left is my aunt and a few cousins and they have done everything they can. I just moved from a horrible situation to help and be with my dad. I'm not on my feet yet. I do not like having to ask for help like this but it really isn't for me- it's for my dad.

Anyone who can donate any amount, even if it's just a few dollars is more than appreciated. I can't express my thankfulness. My dad deserves to be peacefully resting next to my mother. It's always been his wishes. If you can't send anything believe me I understand and request prayers, please.

This world truly lost another pure soul.
