Todd, Sr. and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you.

To All who loved Forrest, he will remain in our hearts forever,,, from the sweet little boy, to the proud Marine. May we find comfort in our memories of Forrest.

I was shocked to learn the sad news about my cousin. He had so much life still to live. After reading the MANY very kind words friends and family wrote I am saddened to say I didn't know Forrest and now have to live without having known him. My heart and love goes out to my aunt Kari, uncle Todd and cousin Todd jr.
With love Emily Perreira

Prayers for peace and healing to the family. We all cherish our memories of Forrest! God bless....

We say "we lost him" yet, actually I believe he has safely landed home and it's those left behind that are now lost in grief, emptiness and sadness with his passing. Simply, with no matter to circumstance, his day came and Forrest was called home. Through the tears, love love love to Kari and family and friends of this fine and proud soldier who marches on...

See you in Valhalla! my Forrbest .
