Swenson, Patricia A. "Pat" age 95 of Mendota, MN. Left peacefully April 20th to be reunited in heaven with her husband Ray, son Jimmy, daughter Mary and grandson Matt; her parents, sister Lorraine and brother Gerard Bohlig. Her sweet smile and gentle hugs will be missed by her children-Richard (Jan), Kathy Lindeman (Bruce), Daryl (Rosie), Ellie, Patty Ludwig (Mike) and Theresa. Her grandchildren-Mark (Traci), Megan, Danielle, Dain, Kevyn (Rob), Melissa, Natalie (Andy) and Josh. Her great-grandchildren-Grace, JD, and Mya. Sister-in-law Dory Bohlig and the entire Bohlig clan, as well as nieces and nephews on the Swanson side of the family. Also survived by "adopted" daughter Colleen Woodley, several God-children and many friends and neighbors. Pat began working as a waitress at age 16 and didn't stop until age 73 when she finished her long stint at the Parker House in Mendota. Life-long member of St. Peter's Church, she truly lived her faith by her actions-feeding the hungry, caring for elderly relatives and opening her home to those in need of shelter-including refugees, young pregnant women or anyone needing support and love. Memorial Mass at St. Peter's Catholic Church 1405 Hwy 13, Mendota on Wednesday, April 29th at 10:30 am with a gathering of family and friends beginning at 9 am. Interment will be at Resurrection Cemetery at a later date. Our deepest gratitude to all those who supported our family with prayer, kindness and love and kept our spirits and bodies fed-especially Matt Resch, Ed Godbout, and Matt Anderson, all of Pat's neighbors, our co-workers, friends, and other Faith communities. Also thanks to Karen V. and everyone at HealthEast Hospice for helping us keep her at home. Memorials preferred to Sharing and Caring Hands or Neighbors Inc. (food shelf).
