To the Forthofer Family .. My thoughts and prayers are with you all .. God Bless ...  Linda Sward

For more than half my life I've had you for a neighbor and most importantly a good friend. I will always treasure our many adventures to the Palm Bch and when we went as far as the Breakers Hotel and just sat and gawked!! ( we laughed too.) I call and say, " How about Dairy Queen," see you in 5. Remember some cold nights and eating a soft serve and one time when a storm came and we never got any; ice cream that is!! We sure had some good eats in our travels too! Playing domino's, all nighters it seemed, sure helped Hunter with adding. The pictures of new grands and greats and wedding pictures of family and being there for John's marriage to Jen. I guess we were there for each others husbands, you kept me sane when my world was dissolving! Now I have to go on with my friend in a different light, looking down from above. It was real special to be a part of your life and i will miss you, even now looking out the window... Recipe for An Amazing Woman: Start with faith and Honesty, Mix in pure humility, Add strength of character that Rises above the stress of lifes surprises, Fold in personality, Toss with generosity, Pour in love from a heart that's true... Yield: One terrific amazing Woman and friend. I love you, Rosemary.

Mrs. Forthofer, both Hunter and I will miss you so very much. You have always been such a big part of our lives. Since I was four years old, I had such a privilege of knowing such a wonderful woman along with your wonder family, that I will always consider part of ours. Thank you for being such a wonderful friend to my mom, who will miss you always. Thank you for your friendship with my dad. Thank you for giving my brother and I such a great neighbor to grow up with. And lastly, thank-you for your love you shared with Hunter, and being there for all his birthdays.

Mrs. Forthofer, you have been and always will be a best friend and neighbor to the Hall family. I enjoyed growing up as your neighbor across the street for thirty three years. I will always remember walking across the street as a boy on his summer vacation from school and watching soap operas with you. I will always remember taking Bell Star for walks and playing in the yard with her. I didn't have my own dog growing up but because of you I felt like I did. Thank you for always being there for my mom and dad and my brother and I. You will be missed by all of those who had the pleasure of knowing you. All my love to you and the Forthofer family. God Bless You and rest in peace eternally with the Lord. I love you my neighbor always and forever.

Aunt Betty will be missed by many. She had a good heart and was there for me many times. I will alway hold a special place in my heart for her, and will be remembering you and your loved ones today and always. God Bless you all.
