Hello family and friends, thank you for taking the time to read about Forest Ruge Whitacre.
We come together with heavy hearts to celebrate and remember Forest who left us suddenly. We are committed to honoring his life and supporting others who face similar struggles. To achieve this, we wish to partially cover the funeral expenses. If we receive more than $3,000, the additional funds will be sent to Above & Beyond Drug & Alcohol Rehabilitation and the Sunset Youth Services. This way, Forest's legacy can touch more lives and bring hope to those struggling with addiction.
We ask for your support in any way you can. Even the smallest gesture can make a big difference. Thank you for being here for us and for helping us honor Forest's memory.

Please join for his memorial on July 11 at 2p @Ranchito in Lowell, IN.
