May God grant his grace and mercy to the family. I am thankful to have known him and served with him.

God Bless you and your family during this diffcult time. I was fortunate to serve under his command in the 134th ARW. Col. Forester was a great leader and commander, he will be sadly missed.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Fred was my favorite "cousin", the bravest man I know and a true gentle man. He enriched my life by just knowing him and I will miss him. God is holding him in his loving arms and he is at peace. I grieve with you Carolyn., With love, Mary Lib
