DeKalb center's oldest resident dies at age 109
DeKALB – Linda Sherman said Oak Crest DeKalb Area Retirement Center won’t be the same without its 109-year-old resident.
Hazel Swanberg died Tuesday and she was remembered as a kind, curious woman who always held a special place in her heart for teaching.
“She put a lot into life,” said Sherman, resident services coordinator for Oak Crest. “She’s always just been here. ... It does feel kind of funny without her. We’ll miss her very much.”
