Rest in Peace, John M. Swomley

[Note: Friends of Justice is a personal blog. I speak only for myself.]

Dear Friend of Justice,

I was saddened to learn of the passing of Reverend John M. Swomley, father of Bernard Baran’s lawyer, John G. Swomley. I never met the elder Swomley, but I know that his values were deeply instilled into his son, who achieved the exoneration of Baran and has fought for justice and civil liberties on so many fronts.

Here is an obituary of a most remarkable man: http://forusa.org/blogs/ethan-vesely-flad/john-swomley-leader-dies-95

    My heart goes out to John for his loss. I can never forget the pain i felt upon losing my own father so I do understand. It seems as if a part of your life is gone but the words and love you shared never leave. Condolences – Dot Stowe
