Forrest will be greatly missed. He hired me at National Supply in 1979 and to this day remains the best boss I ever had. He was a wonderful man and will be missed. Our thought and prayers are with the Bermel family.

To the family of Forrest Bermel, I worked around Forrest both when he was with National Supply and Oklahoma Rig. He was a great man, always had a story and I will be truely missed.

Dear Dad,
We have so many fun memories that we have shared over the years. I remember when I first realized you knew I was an adult when I came home from college and answered medical questions for you; when you walked me down the aisle and we joked of stepping on cockroaches to keep the rhythm of the march that the pastor insisted we use; when you would sit on the floor and play “Barbies” with Tammy while I made dinner when you were traveling for sales; the way you loved how Tammy pronounced “Girl”; when Joel asked “Grandpa, why is your skin so brown- is it because you drink coffee?” And playing all of those games with Joel from Six Cubes to Clue to Phase 10 and whatever else he pulled out. Or all the times you so willingly let Emily play her role as nurse, have you sign in and ask “Grandpa, do you need a shot?” or call and ask, “How is your big owie?” You shared sports talk with Dave, politics and medicine with me, and whatever the grandkids asked about. We are thankful you got to know the great-grand children, Billy and Eleanor. Billy always asks if he gets to see you when he comes to our home. We miss you and will treasure these memories and so many others.
We send you all our love.

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.

To the Bermel family,
I am sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. May God be with you in this trying time and may He give you strength and comfort.

We feel your presence in the wind,
We hear your voice in the birds' song.
Our love for you will never end
It will last our whole life long.

May 16, 2011

We love and miss you.
