The Garner family would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the staff at The Forrest Funeral Home. Your exceptional care and compassion in handling the final arrangements for our beloved Mother, Catherine Garner, were deeply appreciated. From our initial meeting, it was evident that we had made the right decision entrusting The Forrest Funeral Home with the honor of preparing Mom's burial. Each step was conducted with professionalism and a genuine sense of family-oriented service.

Mom, who was known for her meticulous appearance and attention to detail, would have been pleased with how she looked during the viewing. She appeared peaceful, as if she were merely sleeping without a care in the world. Saying goodbye was undoubtedly difficult, but the support we received from Forrest and the entire team made the process more bearable. We found solace in knowing that Mom had been entrusted to a group of individuals who genuinely cared about her and our family. Our heartfelt gratitude to you all.
