    We did not know Mr Forde personally, but we know he must have been a good man to bring up such caring children. You are all in our prayers. May God be your peace and comfort in your time of need.

  4. Gene & Linda Spearman

    Gene and I are so sorry. I don’t know how to put a lifetime of memories, happy times and times not so happy in such a short space. We all know that these memories are there for us anytime we chose to remember. We try to prepare ourselves for what we know is inevidable but somehow when that time comes we are never ready. Just rest in the promise that Johnny is in a better place and we are all better for knowing him. Johnny was a special person who touched so many lives in so many wonderful ways.
