Exclamation Reproduction forend tragedy, please help me!

Hello all unfortunately I endured a small tragedy while out on the creek trying to enjoy some hunting for my veterans days. My 12ga Parker repro dhe splinter forend came unlatched after firing at a wood duck and fell into the deep tidal creek below unable to be retrieved (at least I got the bird).

I sat and wept for a minute from the loss of my forend and carried on.

I am posting to ask for advice and suggestions on what to do next I am a financially restricted young Marine with a second baby on the way who only has Parker shotguns thanks to my generous father but I’d like to know what options yall will suggest for the situation moving forward. Can I simply find a replacement forend? Have one made by a gunsmith? If so does anyone have suggestions? Any idea for cost on this? I’m open to any and every suggestion please PM me or reply with anything you can think of, every suggestion helps thank you.
