"It is doubly enriching for us and for our children to hold both our own country and Sweden so close to our hearts. Sveadal has become a very special place. It was created by this Swedish immigrant colony of the San Francisco area. The spirit, achievements, goals and ideals of those now deceased are kept alive in the memory of the living. That is our legacy and we are obligated to pass it on to our children."
