The Moody Family were members of Bethany Place Bapt Church for several years and Forrest, Rachel, and Greg grew up there. Forrest was in the Youth Group with my kids and I remember many great times going on retreats and mission trips! As he grew older, I kept up with him through Facebook and was proud of his Faith as he faced his physical struggles. He was a HOKIE and Cowboys Fan just like my son Brian!
I am sorry that I will not be able to attend the service on Saturday, but please be assured of my love and prayers Sharon and family! May God comfort you with the peace that passes all understanding in the coming days, and may happy memories help ease the pain of loss.
