Forrest was a wonderful Christian man. I guess I always regarded him as my baby brother. He always had a smile on his face. He loved my Mom and Dad and they loved him. Every Sunday morning Mom would come home from church and say Forrest came up behind me this morning as I was going to the organ and goosed me and I'm so afraid I'm going to say a naughty word. I said well if you do he would probably just laugh. Even though I have moved away from Spurger I will miss him very much. At least I know that one glad day I will see him again!
