Terrill Lee Kale Swiger

Terrill Lee Kale Swiger, born December 30, 1954, in Salem, Ohio, left this world surrounded by love, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, laughter, and devotion. She was the daughter of Harry Paxson and Starling Marie Paxson, who raised her with the values of compassion and strength that she carried throughout her life.

Terrill’s journey through life was marked by love. She first married Raymond Kale,Together, they raised two sons who became her pride and joy: Joshua Neil Kale and Shane Edward Kale. and after his passing, found love again with William E. Swiger Jr. Who cared for her and loved her in her last days 

But it was as a grandmother that Terrill’s heart truly blossomed. She adored her grandchildren — Savannah White, Alyssa Kale, Trinity Kale, Ezeekiel Kale, Maximus Kale, and Zennor Kale. With each of them, she created a world of magic, making up silly songs, inventing games, and diving into pretend play that filled their childhoods with laughter and joy. Her love for them was limitless, and they were the light of her life.

Terrill was a woman whose smile could light up a room and whose laughter was so contagious it lingered in the air long after she stopped. She was endlessly understanding, deeply caring for people and the world around her. To know her was to be welcomed, accepted, and cherished.

Her family and friends will forever miss her gentle heart, her joyful spirit, and the way she made every person she met feel important. Though her absence leaves a deep ache, her memory will live on in the stories, laughter, and love she gave so freely.

Terrill’s life reminds us that kindness is the most lasting legacy, and her family takes comfort in knowing that her spirit shines on in all who were lucky enough to love her.
