Now Gimme Your Best Roar

Filed under General

The Schwanz family is filled with world travelers. Some of these travelers also live overseas. I currently have six family members living in Uganda. Swanee (my dad’s next-older brother) and his wife Karen working on lots of stuff, including building church buildings. My cousin-in-law Matthew Robertson, married to my cousin Sheila (daughter of Swanee and Karen), is currently the National Director of Habitat for Humanity in Uganda. Matthew and Sheila have two kids, Karene and Samuel.

Well, 12 other members of the Schwanz family are currently in Uganda, visiting the six there, but they are also there to build two houses as a memorial for two family members. One is for my Aunt Nelda, and the other is for Grandma Myrtle. You can track the progress of the trip over here.
