My dear friend Jan,
Please know that you are in my prayers. It has been a long journey for both you and Bill. There were times when you thought you might not be able to go another step. You should know that we all tried to help you along the way just as you have helped us so many times on our journey. Love to you and your family. Amy
How you can show support

Mrs. Forst,
I was so saddened to hear of Bill's passing. I have never met you, but have heard such wonderful things about you. I can't begin to tell you how much Bill was loved by my family. He was always a true friend to my father (Bobby Wright), especially after Daddy got sick. He would always come by to visit Daddy after golfing to tell him how he did that day and it would always make him smile. Bill will certainly be missed by so many people, but I know he is in a better place now. My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family.

My father, Lawrence C. Haake, Jr., worked very closely with Mr. Forst when he first arrived in the Dept of Taxation and for a long time thereafter. Mr. Forst was kind enough to attend the funeral of my father at his passing 15 months ago.
Condolences from the Haake family go to the Forst family as we all mourn the loss of another member from a great generation.

Jan,
Thank you for the priviledge of playing harp at the Wake for your husband. May he be held in God's tender mercy, and may you and your family always be kept in God's loving embrace.

Jan,
We all hope to have "good" neighbors in the houses we can see from our windows. You and Bill have been "great" neighbors since the time you moved to Bute Lane. I will always remember how kind and thoughtful you and Bill were when Dianne was so ill, and the two of you continued to be the same way as I recovered from my loss.
I know that your family will be there for you now and you can be sure that your neighbors will be there for you as well! You have "earned" any support you might need in the coming weeks or months.
