John...I worked with your mom at Venture over 25 years ago. I remember your Dad's tragic passing like it was yesterday. Your mom helped us find and buy one of our homes. We lost touch over the years but I will forever remember her hard work and her kindness. I am very sorry also to see that your brother passed away as well; I wish I had known sooner. I'm glad they are all reunited now but am so very sorry for your loss! You will be in our thoughts and prayers! May God Bless you!

I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to the Marguerite A Forsythe family. I knew Marguerite while going to elementary school. We always were best friends, walking everywhere, having sleepovers and walking all the way to the Evergreen Mall to get our tuna sandwich and coke. She was a most gracious friend, kind, considerate and so beautiful. God bless her family and angels surround them with beautiful memories. Fran Orth (Rockaitis).

John, I am so sorry for your loss. Your Mom's smile and laugh would always light up any room. I know she is smiling as she is reunited with your Dad, Michael and so many others but I will miss her and remember her laughter always.
