Rocky’s Walter Swart will be featured on Galen Culver’s “Is This A Great State or What” segment on KFOR Channel 4 News on Wednesday, Sept. 25, 2019, which also happens to be Swart’s 100th birthday.
Swart was born and raised in Rocky and still farms his own land. He has been married to his wife Florene for 78 years and the couple still live in their own home together. Swart’s daughter, Marla Harper, said he doesn’t take any prescription drugs and she can’t even convince him to get a hearing aid. “You can’t keep a good man down,” she said.
