Forrest L. Cloud

Dear Tree,

After 38 long years I remember meeting your mom and dad like it was yesterday. I pray God will encourage you in knowing that your dad is in complete health and peace. I am sure God is using him in His Kingdom in some glorious way! Your entire family is in my heart and my prayers.

Steve and Tree, your father was a symbol of his generation, simple, down to earth and hard working. Even though he was winding down his career with IBT while I was starting, I always new his presence in the tone he had set for IBT to function as a company.

My fondest memory of your father was when I was fortunate to go on a trip to Dallas and sit next to your father on the plane.

Even though he was retired and well established, he took the time to visit with me,...

Bonnie, Tree, and Steve:
I just found out today of Forrest's passing. My deepest sympathy and prayers are with you. Forrest and IBT gave me my beginning in business back in 1975. Without a doubt, Forrest set the tone for one of the best business environments around. All should be so lucky to have been a part of his legacy. A great man will be missed.

Sorry about your loss.
Our prayers & thoughts are with you.

I only got to meet Great-Uncle Forrest a few times, but I was always in awe of him. The last I saw him was when my Grandmother, Marilyn Cloud (his sister in law) passed on. I will miss Forrest and regret that I wasnt able to visit with him more.

Best wishes to the Cloud family for their shared loss of a wonderfully kind and generous man.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.

It is times like these that one wishes they could carry their friends' burdens to help ease the pain. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

It was so sad to hear of F.L.'s passing. I remember back when IBT was a 3 store operation and a sales meeting was held in Dale's Basement in Topeka, KS. I also remember, later working with F.L. in the field. Days I will never forget. Our prayers go with the Cloud family, John and Shelley Bolling
