I spoke with Steven Salmon today, business partner of the late Art Atwood.
He called MD to set the record straight on a few things being said about the passing of Art.
Steven advised, “Sunday, at about 2:30PM, Art was walking through the pool area of his residence when he had a massive heart attack.
We are not sure if he was going for a swim or just passing through the area, but he was not at a party. He was at the pool area of the condo where he lives.
Two residents who were at the pool saw him fall in and immediately pulled him out. They were able to revive him and get the paramedics, but it was too late. The damage had already been done.”
I asked Steven if Art died there or on the way to the hospital. He said he was unsure, because those details had not been released. He will update us further as the story develops.
Art is survived by both of his parents, a brother and a sister. He will be buried in Wisconsin.
A candle light vigil will be held at his home in Dallas the weekend after the Olympia.
Steven also advised that Art's business, Pro Supplements, will carry on with business as usual, keeping Art's vision alive.
We will continue to update you as information becomes available.
Newest information from Steven:
"Art died at the hospital.
The coroner’s report shows that he died of heart attack.
He unknowingly suffered a minor heart attack about a month ago. As it turns out, heart disease does run in his family."
