Swisher has a nickname that most in the department called her - SWISH. “We are a work family here,” shared O’Brien. “We grieve when one loses a loved one. We celebrate when one rejoices in the birth of a new family member. We cry when we say farewell to one so loved as SWISH is.” During Swisher’s retirement party, current and former colleagues all came together to wish her well.
