Martha Glen Pickens Forrester, age 70 of Monticello, went to be with her Lord and Savior Tuesday, August 2, 2022, at Baptist Medical Center in Little Rock, AR. She was born November 28, 1951, in Bradley County, AR to the late David Pickens and Madelyn Moran Pickens.
She was the widow of Billy Fike Forrester, a former employee of Wal Mart and the University of Arkansas at Monticello and was a member of Northside Baptist Church. In addition to her parents, she was also preceded in death by her twin sister, Mary Lynn Pickens Neely and husband Marshall. Martha loved her church and its activities, traveling to Branson, Memphis and going on cruises; but her greatest passion was caring for her beloved daughter Karen. The Warren High School Class of 1970 loved Martha as a friend and classmate and she will be missed by each of them.
She is survived by her daughter, Karen Denise Forrester of Monticello; her best friend, Linda Naron of Monticello; along with several cousins.

"I am saddened to hear of the loss of the beautiful Ms. Martha. She was always smiling and ready to pass along her infectious positivity any time I was having a less than ideal day. She will be greatly missed!"

"I worked with Martha at UAM for a time and we spent many lunch breaks together . She was so tender hearted and such an inspiration to me and always reminded me that God would show me the way in my trials tribulations. She adored her family so much and loved Karen deeply. I am so sorry Karen.
I know the Angels choir sounds so much more beautiful now with you in it , Martha .
Absent from the body , present with the Lord . Martha is present with her Lord & Savior rejoicing with her family there."
