Hi [member=7067]JanetBiggar[/member]
The best advice I can give is that you save all of the pws you use safely and using different methods/approaches; in a usb flash drive, in a notebook, in the cloud, in your e-mail, your mobile...you might as well use all of these options, cause no OS is "human error proof" so is up to users to try to take care of things like these for themselves, however, there are apps like keepass, lastpass and other similars which can help in creating, managing and saving your passwords, pick one, try it and see if it suits your needs, if it doesn't try another till you find the one that suits you better.
Also, you can change the lost/old pw which involves not a very dificult procedure but it does require some work. You may read here all about it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
Hope this helps!
