Forbis family, please know that albeit I didn’t know Greg for long, he was a star in my eyes after spending 15 minutes with him solving supply chain issues for my Walmart suppliers. He was so smart, kind, personable and knowledgeable on the business. We should all strive to be like Greg in our lives. I know now that he was sick when I started working with him but he never let on. Working hard to help people solve problems to the very end. My office is next door to the Bentonville park on Main Street that has a magnolia tree planted in his honor. Please know that I stop by very often to chat with him and thank him for being such a positive person in my work life and a breath of fresh air!!! God bless you all! Sharon Belto

I didn’t really know Greg personally, but he was one of the coaches/parent helpers for my son’s little league team almost 20 years ago. To a little boy who was not athletic and didn’t really fit in or thrive, Greg was incredibly kind, supportive, and encouraging to my son. I regret I never got the chance to thank him personally. It meant so much to me and spoke so loudly to the kind of man Greg was. I pray he is resting peacefully.

Gosh, I'm so sorry to run across the tidings of Greg's passing. We worked with Greg when he was with Sam's Clubs leading their DC network, and then years later when he was leading a group for Walmart Transportation. I found him bright, thoughtful and fair, and I enjoyed his sense of humor and nurturing style, which many others have also mentioned.

My condolences, Tom Miralia

Greg and me both worked for Sam's Club for years but in different departments. When I first moved to Rogers Greg and Robin took the time to show me where they lived and recommend different neighborhoods in the area. In the 20 years that followed he was always there with a positive word and great smile when I would see him out and about. This type of caring for others goes to the core of what Greg represented which is what we will truly miss. Robin, Carter and Katie know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Robin; you and Greg were our first next door neighbors when we moved here. Remember the 4th of July fireworks? Always a blowout and Greg helping to clean up after. I’m so, so sorry ❤️💔

Greg was the most down to earth person I have ever met. He always took the time to say Hi, and tried to get to know a little something about everyone he worked with. He always had a smile on his face.. He will truely be missed. .

Greg was always a great friend and was someone you were happy to run into. I always appreciated his support and interest in whatever we were working on together and his eagerness to listen to new ideas. He was a great leader and was always ready to share a laugh! Lots of great memories -

I taught second grade at Washington Elementary School in Sedalia, MO for 31 years. I have wonderful memories of Gregory and his brother, Andrew. It saddens me greatly to read Gregory's obituary. The Forbis family was so supportive of our school. With deepest sympathy, Linda Kaullen Perkins.
