M.Swanson Family

“I too am a UCLA grad.   Merle loved UCLA and all of his memories there.  We talked about UCLA every time we were together and especially towards the end of his life.

He loved wearing his UCLA slippers. We always said “once a Bruin always a Bruin”.

It would mean so much to him that you are taking the time to dedicate a tribute to him. It means so much to the family.

Thank you for doing this very kind gesture. – Karen Swanson, daughter.

“It’s very nice to hear that you will reserve a seat and have a moment of silence in his memory at your annual “Founders Day” alumni reunion/awards dinner.”

– Doug Swanson, son.
