George Arthur Atwood passed away at his home in Island Park, Idaho on December 5th, 2018. He was born July 19th, 1952 in Niangua, Missouri to Etta "Evlyn" Atwood. He was third of seven siblings which he grew up with near Conway, Missouri. After attending Conway High School, he married Kathy (Williams-Hacker) and had his oldest daughter Candace Marie.

In 1976 he moved to Idaho for opportunities for hunting big game. He met and married Susan (Stoneberg) and were the owners of Firelight Pizza in Idaho Falls. They had two children together Amy Lynn and Jared James.

Although he was skilled in many types of construction, he loved to run his own business, Atwood Concrete Construction. He lived in Rigby and Idaho Falls over the years then he finally made his home in Island Park at the family cabin. George enjoyed the outdoors fishing, hunting, playing with and telling stories to his grandchildren were his favorite pastimes.
