Eric Svaigsen Memorial

Eric Svaigsen a long time member of Augustana died on March 23, 2009. Eric was a dedicated member and gave not only his time but he helped Augustana financially. These monetary gifts were his weekly envelopes and special donations when ever Augustana had a financial need.

His widow, Frances Svaigsen, requested a memorial in honor of Eric. This Easter Sunday, April 4, 2010, the altar will be decorated with new paraments in memory of Eric. He was much loved and honored as a great Lutheran. He is truly missed.
