Memories of Daniel John Swiggum

My Memory

Stephanie Tipton Jul 26, 2009

My heart goes out to you for Daniel, he was a wonderful guy. I had the pleasure when he was younger to coach him in soccer, the M-80's. Boy could he play and he was a leader to the team. My daughter went to church with him and has nothing but wonderful things to say about him. God Bless you and your family.

Peace to Swig...

I did not know Daniel but I kept seeing his name "Swig" and the memorial on the pylon near Sepulveda and Imperial. I said to myself who was this person Swig? He had many people who loved him and wanted to make sure that his memory lives on. For several days I have been trying to remember to come home and look for his memorial on the computer. Tonight I did it. Daniel sounds like he was an amazing young man who was just getting started with his position in life and on this planet. May he rest in peace and may a piece of his spirit live on in us all.
God Bless him and his family and friends...

Daniel

Tammy Sep 25, 2008

There are so many memories that keep playing in my mind. Even now, two months after he left here to go home it seems unreal. I miss him. I miss knowing that I will not see him, here. I remember when he was a baby, and I would hold him on my lap and put a crayon in his hand... and we would all color. Then when he was about two... I put some gel in his hair, to try and spike it and he got mad.. and ran into the bathroom, grabbed a bath towel and tried to wipe it out of his hair. I couldnt help but smile at how determined hew as that he did not want that "stuff" in his hair. Only a few years later he would use more than enough. :) Picnics of McDonalds in the backyard, walking to preschool at the High School...from swimming and backyard/family bbqs to camping at the Kern.. Christmas at Grandma's and Saturdays watching Ninja Turtles. From driving to In N Out to Jack in the Box and Carls Jr. to driving around the coast of Southern California... he is in each memory. He was always there with a smile and was always willing to help. To see this young man grow up.. so full of life and love. To know that his heart was good. To know that his faith in Jesus secured him a place in heaven. To know that I will see him again, when I go home to the Lord.. that is comforting me. Daniel, I miss you so much. I wish I could give you a big hug right now.... please save one for me when I arrive and I will save one for you. I love you little Daniel. I love you.

I love you Dan

I didn't know Daniel, but he still touched my life. My family is from the same town as his, we know the same people. I feel for his family, I can say I know how they feel. Just weeks before Daniel's death, my brother was also killed in a morotcycle accident. My heart goes out to the Swiggum's. Rest in peace Daniel, and say hi to David for me.
