I am so sorry to learn of Forest’s passing. He was such a kind man and taught me about caring for others through his example. He encouraged me during some difficult days and I was blessed to know him! Forest, I will always remember you and ask myself what Forest would do in various situations! The answer would always involve GRACE! May God bless your family and your many friends in this time of sorrow. Thankfully, in God’s time, we will meet again on “the other side,” where there is no more sorrow and no more tears. You were truly a wonderful friend!
