Gregory Lee Goodbar, of Austin, Arkansas, born September 25, 1978, departed this world May 25, 2023, leaving behind his wife Amber, 7-year-old twins Kyle and Lacy, 19-year-old son Finn, his mother Ena and brother Marc, and many friends and loved ones.
He was preceded in death by his Grandparents Hilda and Robert Nord and Mary and Fritz Goodbar; his Father Fritz Goodbar; his siblings Baby Goodbar and Hilary Goodbar; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Greg Goodbar had a laugh and smile that would light up a room; and a big heart that loved so strong. He was a lover of the outdoors, and his most favorite of all outdoor activities was to duck hunt. That was his happy place. The only thing he may have loved more than duck hunting would have been Amber, Finn, Kyle and Lacy. Greg was a father, a friend, and a brother and he will be truly missed by all.

Ret in peace Greg. We love you
So sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss. He is in a place now free from pain. Love you
Greg loved being a Husband and a Father and Family Man.
I have no doubts that Hilda Nord was first in line to Greet her handsome grandson and Hug his neck and kiss his Brow.
How Proud Hilda was of Greg and of his Mother and her daughter Ena Nord Goodbar who did a wonderful job of raising Greg to be a strong man; A Leader. An Educated Man Who NEVER stopped Learning and loved sharing with his family. His example as a Christian influenced his Children even in his last days.
His beloved wife and his Mother were with Greg and grief his loss but know his freedom from Pain, Doctorsand Nurses is
God’s Peace bestowed upon his exhausted Mortal Body and
his Spiritual Body is Blessed and Rewarded in Heaven.
We are so sorry for your loss! You all will be in our prayers
You will truly be miss – fly high friend
Praying for the family !
