The day police found the body of her son, Maryanne Swenson posted on a Facebook page Bring Paul Home, "I have been privileged to the direct insight of the goodness of others and we thank God every day for each one. . . . We rely on our Heavenly Father and his infinite love to carry us. He is all knowing, and loving and all wise. One thing I do know is that He knows how to take difficult things and turn them into something beautiful. That instills hope and courage. Miracles. I believe in miracles. Especially ones of the heart. Paul, we love you. We always have. You were a gift from heaven."
