Kirk Schwabe, who taught Swift at Hendersonville High School in Nashville and later worked as her security guard, died following a battle with metastatic kidney cancer on Friday at the age of 69.
Schwabe’s daughter Sarah Gordon revealed on Thursday that her dad had been moved to hospice care after his health had ‘declined rapidly’.
‘If you know my dad, you know he has poured his heart into everything he’s done.
‘He has always loved teaching. He loves his students.’
Gordon posted a photo of Swift with her dad while holding a framed record plaque of her 2006 album Taylor Swift.

Schwabe was a police officer in Chicago before he became a criminal justice educator and taught Swift from 2004 to 2006 while she was in her mid-teens.
Before his death, Schwabe said he believed his former student had found the right partner in Kelce.
