George W. Reykdal, 76, originally of Ashland, Wisconsin passed away peacefully, Saturday, November 4, 2023 at Kinnic Health and Rehab of River Falls, Wisconsin. He was born in Ashland, Wisconsin, to Norlin and Sarah (Notton) Reykdal. George attended DePadua High School, Ashland and graduated from Oconomowoc High School. He also attended Northland College and University of Wisconsin, Whitewater. George served in the United States Marine Corps (1972-1975). He was assigned to a journalist position and provided photography for a newspaper near Camp Pendleton, California. George was modest about his writing and art ability. As an observer he was extremely accomplished at both. He has published a book of poetry and prose entitled 'The Car Behind the Barn'.
