Mount Pleasant – Frederick M. Swearingen, 78, known to all as “Mike”, passed away on August 2, 2018. He was born in Indiana on April 7, 1940, son of the late Frederick and Dorothy (Née: Boyle) Swearingen.
Mike was a quality control supervisor for Kerry Seasoning before he retired. He proudly and faithfully served his country in the United States Army. Mike was a very mechanical person. He could fix just about anything at the house and loved working on his car. He loved fishing especially on Lake Michigan or on the ocean. Mike enjoyed cooking, working in his garden, and especially loved spending time with his extended Indian family and friends.
Mike leaves to cherish his memory, his wife, Purnima Swearingen; sons, Sujan (Amanda) Swearingen, Vijay Swearingen, Manoj (Jessica) Swearingen; granddaughter, Lillian Swearingen; sister, Sue (Ronald) Livingston; brother, Lawrence “Larry” (Marcia) Swearingen; other relatives and friends too numerous to mention.
Mike is preceded in death by his parents, Frederick and Dorothy Swearingen.

I am deeply sorry to hear Mike has passed away. I worked with him at Kerry and still remember how kind and laid-back he was. I remember talking with him about medicine and how he would light up talking about his wife, a pediatric dentist, and his sons going through medical school.
