In Loving Memory

Terrance Van Swartzle

It is with heavy heart that I announce the passing of my beloved brother, Terry, who left us on February 27, 2026. Born on November 3, 1948, to Ethel Elizabeth (Betty) Van Fossen Swartzle and Francis A. Swartzle. He is survived by his sister, Sheryl Swartzle (Andrew Ball) and his niece, Darla Dill (Tradd Thomas) who will forever treasure the special moments shared together. Terrance was born in Hammonton, NJ and was developmentally disabled.

For many years, Terry was cared for at Elwyn New Jersey by many wonderful caregivers and friends and by the Bureau of Guardianship Services.

Despite the challenges he faced due to his disability, Terry taught us all the true meaning of unconditional love and resilience. His presence reminded us daily of the beauty in simplicity and the importance of compassion.

Terry enjoyed listening to music, watching his favorite TV shows, and spending time with family and friends. His memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him dearly.

The family wishes to thank everyone for their support and kindness during this difficult time. A service to honor Terry’s life will be held in the springtime at McCann - Healey Funeral Home: 851 Monmouth Street, Gloucester City, NJ 08030. Inurnment at Cedar Grove Cemetery, Gloucester City, NJ will be private.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to https://www.elwyn.org/support-elwyn/donate-now in his memory to help support other disabled adults. Please write in memo: Terrance Van Swartzle
