A Texas angel was called back to heaven today. We said farewell to Charles Wallace "CW" Swofford this morning at 2:30. He was on this earth from 3/8/52 until 9/5/07. A short 55 years, but he filled it with love and laughter and "good ol' boy" country charm. I don't know a single person who could say any negative thing about Dub. He was everyone's friend, had plenty of family who loved him, and was the most loyal and loving guy you could ever know. He would do anything at all for anyone, all they had to do was ask. He was fiercely loyal and protective of his family, especially his wife, my sister Laura, and their 2 boys, John and Jared, including brothers and a sister, inlaws and cousins and nieces and nephews too numerous to mention. He will be greatly missed, and very well remembered. I was so lucky and very proud to call him family. I love you always, and will miss you, ya big lug.

Hugs, babe. I only met Dub once, but I can tell he will be greatly missed. Love you, D.
They say the lord works in mysterious ways but this is just an example of him being straight up mean. Plenty of other assholes in this world that he could have taken but he chose Dub, my favorite Brother in law, a straight up great person all around. I can see why people lose religion over the loss of loved ones. I have very little faith to begin with and this has just shaken it up more. Dub will be sorely missed by all, I just hope God see's fit to let him still watch the UT games from on high.
