Dennis Swickard, far from enigmatic, was smart, kind, talented, and had a great sense of humor. He shared his love with his wife Suzanne since the day they met, 43 years ago. No one thing defines Dennis as a person, professional, or father. As Vice President Operations of Ponderosa Homes, his passion for building was evident in the finest attention to detail. His love of family is reflected in his son Sean and his daughter Jaime, the loves of his life. Our fondest family memories are of great times at Lake Berryessa and Lake Tahoe. Dennis was an accomplished outdoorsman, sometime good fisherman, and always a hardworking family man. His generous spirit will be missed by all who knew and loved him. Friends can remember Dennis with a donation in his name to Bruns House c/o Hospice of the East Bay and Desert Cancer Foundation. No Services will be held.
