Uncle Anders has been gone almost 17 years! He is still loved, still remembered and will always be missed. This man had a fantastic smile...and as I think of him now, he is smiling in my memory. I honor him and love him very much!

Uncle Anders was such a special part of our childhood memories from Oak Ridge. I remember riding in the back of the pick-up singing, "Untold millions are still untold" over and over again - Darlene and I shampooing our hair with chicken eggs... He will be missed. My love and prayers to all the family.

Uncle Anders always had a special place in my heart...and he always will. His smile and the smile in his eyes when he looked at you is what I will remember. My love to Beth, Lynn, Paul, Chris, Scott and Sandy.

I was so sorry to hear of Uncle Anders' passing. My best childhood memories were our summer visits to the "farm". Collecting the chicken eggs, riding on the tractors, Uncle Anders always made everything so much fun. My thoughts and prayers are with Beth, Lynn, Paul & the rest of his family.

It was with deep regret that I read of the passing of your father, grandfather, husband, and brother. I knew Anders and his family my entire life.
It is my hope that he is at peace.

Some of my earliest memories was of Uncle Anders teasing me, until I thought I would explode from laughing. As we were growing up he always made things just a bit more fun. From letting us kids drive his cars on the back roads, or giving us a whole chicken coop for a playhouse. When Bob and I opened our business he was there to help us in anyway he could. I credit my love for old things and the attitude of "keep it you never know when you might need it" from him.

My Love and prayers to Sandy, Beth, Lynn, Paul, Chris, Scott, the grandchildren and his brothers.

With love,
Darlene
