To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, ""I welcome...

Dearest Ones,

We all know that "Miss Ethel" is in Heaven today with her Lord and Savior. This in itself should give us peace in our hearts and joy in our souls. Not all children in this world are blessed to be raised by such a Christian mother who has touched many other hearts along the way. I know this because of how she influenced my son, Brian. I have never seen him, other than loosing his own grandmother, as weary in his heart as he was over Dett and yet at peace in his soul...

Forrest family - I as so sorry to hear of Ethel's passing. May God bless you all during this time.
