George Arthur Peterson passed away on March 14, 2023 at the age of 89. Art was born September 28, 1933 to Chester MB Peterson and Georgia Catherine Whitman in Lehi, Utah. He graduated from Lehi High School and served his country in the Navy on the aircraft carrier USS Shangri-La. He met Ida Georgia Nelson on a blind date and they married May 20, 1955 in the Manti Temple.

Art took great pride in the house that he built with Georgia, from plans she drew up while he was serving in the military. Art was a hard worker who always had at least two jobs plus seasonal work at the Lehi Sugar Factory or finishing drywall. He also loved the time he spent working with the Bushman's on their farm. Art's father died young, and he had a great love and respect for his uncles who stepped up to fill the void; especially his uncle Dale. Art also had a great love for his many nieces and nephews.

Art is survived by children Chet, Dale, and Linda Sue; 7 grandchildren; and 10 great grandchildren. He is also survived by sister Laurel Berry, and brother-in-law Gene & Jan Kirkham. He is preceded in death by his parents; wife Georgia; brothers Valno and Ron, and sister Lou Gene Kirkham.

At Art's request, no services will be held. Burial and dedication of the grave will take place on March 17, 2023 at 11:00 AM in the Lehi City Cemetery, 1525 North 600 East.
