He's the son of former Senator Richard Schweiker.

No he is not, he is the son of John and Mary Schweiker of Levittown, Bucks County.

Former Pa. U.S. Senator Richard S. Schweiker is from Montgomery County.

There may or may not be a family relationship. That part of the state has a strong German/Pennsylvania Dutch heritage. Schweiker sounds as though it could be one of those names that take up dozens of pages in the local phone books.

An interesting note about Senator Richard Schweiker. He was Ronald Reagan's VP pick in the 1976 Primary. He later served as Reagan's initial Secretary of Health and Human Services.
