Melinda Kay Swafford, 57 years old, of Georgetown, Texas, was received into the arms of our Lord and Savior on July 22, 2018, in Georgetown, Texas.

Mindy was born in Dallas, Texas, to her loving parents, Curtis and Marilyn Mickan, on May 2, 1961.

She was raised in Dallas where she attended Zion Lutheran School, Hillcrest High School, and graduated from Baylor University.

She married Danny Charles Swafford, Jr., on July 2, 1983, in Dallas, Texas. With him she has enjoyed the last 25 years in Georgetown, Texas.

Mindy and Danny were blessed with 35 years of devoted marriage. Their love was shown through raising their 3 children in a Christian environment.

She was always a sweet and considerate hostess by opening her home to friends, family, and visitors. Her most recent joy was found in being a “MeMaw” and “Minnie” to her 4 granddaughters, entertaining them each in fun and unique ways.

Mindy originated the Faith Lutheran Preschool in 1996 as the founding Director where she served in this position for the next 10 years. With a servant’s heart, she contributed her time and experience to multiple boards within the church, chaperoned youth mission trips, and ministered to others on various retreats.

Mindy believed in a strong emphasis on Christian education and she spent much of her time co-leading children and adult Bible studies. Mindy served the Boys and Girls Club of Georgetown with a full heart, as well as numerous PTA’s and Booster club organizations to show her endless support for her 3 kids.

Mindy is preceded in death by her grandparents, sister Deborah Rene Burgess, and mother Marilyn K. Mickan.

Mindy is survived by her husband, Danny; son, Joshua Swafford and daughter-in-law Laura Swafford; daughter, Casey Rainey and son-in-law Lance Rainey; son, Benjamin Swafford and daughter-in-law Hannah Swafford; father, Curtis Mickan; grandchildren Kennedy Swafford, Landri Rainey, Hadley Swafford, and Quinley Rainey.

Pallbearers are sons Joshua Swafford, Benjamin Swafford; son-in-law Lance Rainey; nephews Drew Burgess and Shaun Burgess and Samuel Bogle.

Funeral services for Mindy will be held on Friday, July 27, 2018, beginning with a visitation at 10:00 a.m. at Faith Lutheran Church in Georgetown, Texas.

The funeral will proceed at 11:00 a.m. with Pastor Walt Pohland, Senior Pastor of Faith Lutheran Church, officiating. Burial will follow at Zion Lutheran Cemetery in Walburg, TX.

Arrangements are by Ramsey Funeral Home.

Memorials may be given to Faith Lutheran Church Preschool; Upbring New Life Children’s Center; or Boys and Girls Club of Georgetown.

The family is very grateful and humbled by your continued love and support.
