George Wyatt Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 12, 2025.
George Anthony Wyatt, of Bloomington, was born on June 3rd, 1993, and passed away on March 8th, 2025. A 2011 Bloomington High School North graduate, George's tall frame and gregarious energy made him instantly recognizable around town and a welcome sight for anyone who crossed his path. A strong athlete who loved good competition, George played AAU basketball growing up and all four years at BHSN. In the summer, George could be found at the softball fields at Twin Lake, where he played for 13 years and cheered on his father's teams for many more. His love of the outdoors and long roots in Bloomington and Brown County meant that George readily adopted the skilled trades in construction and painting, working at Loren Wood Builders for the last 8 1/2 years. His experience and abilities were also put to use by friends and family to whom he always willingly lent a hand.

George's infectious smile and quick laughter lit up every room he walked in, and will be missed beyond belief by those who loved him. George is survived by his beloved daughter, Nova Odessa Wyatt, and her mother, Taylor Ballard, parents Lilia and George Anthony "Tony" Wyatt, sisters Yzmari Henderson and Koren Wyatt, nephews Ryan Smith and Izsak Henderson, niece Charlotte "Charlie" Sanders, and great nephew Kaiden Smith. George was also loved and will be missed by his many cousins, aunts, and uncles near and far.

From the boy to the man, George's generous and gentle nature meant that whoever he encountered in every walk of life felt special and welcome. Please join us to celebrate his light and life on Sunday, March 23rd, 2025 at Karst Farm Park from 3-6 pm (Shelters 1 and 2)

I only played softball with George on some certain Sundays at Bryan Park but who he was, heart and soul, shown through instantly and always. One of that rare breed that infuses everything with love, warmth and grace. Smile on Big George!

I got to play softball with George the last couple of years and in that short time, he made an impression. Never saw him without a smile on his face and such a personality. Prayers for all his family and friends. He will be deeply missed

George, I remember meeting you on my first day at LWB. You told me about your daughter Nova, and how sweet she was. Later that week, I struggled to throw plywood into a dumpster, and even though you were already off the clock, you came over to help. You told me you remembered what it felt like to be new.

That kindness never changed. Throughout the years we worked together, you were always there to lend a hand, share a laugh, or teach me something new. When I mentioned I was trying to re-plaster my walls, you didn´t hesitate to help-in exchange for pizza and beers on my porch, of course. The summer I attempted to play softball with your team, even though I wasn´t any good, you were always encouraging.

You were more than a coworker to everyone at LWB-you were a friend. I´m so sorry for your family´s loss, and for Nova, but I know your kindness and generosity will live on in all of us lucky enough to have known you.

George was so loved and cherished by our family here in the Sutherlin household. Our children always looked forward to visits from George and reveled in giving him high fives, huge hugs, and drawing him silly pictures. Even our dogs, Marzipan and Chavo, adored George, whose energy brought an aire of calmness to our chaotic household. When we needed a helping hand or a listening ear, George was always there. In George, Cody had a beloved friend, and I had the privilege of witnessing their love and camaraderie, which only comes from a friendship that has lasted the test of time.
Losing George is a painful shock that will change our lives forever. We will always remember and love George, and will honor him by living life to the fullest, loving the people around us, and valuing kindness and humor above all else.
We love and miss you
