My condolences to Mr. Anderson's family. He taught me several subjects at Sunnybrook Christian Academy between 1991-93. He was a great teacher and a very kind and patient man. He will live on in the hearts of the many lives that he touched. I was blessed to have known him.

Saddened to hear of Mr. Anderson's passing. He was such a kind, gentle man. He often made my classmates and I laugh with the subtlest of comments, and surely none of us will forget our "Walmart talks". He will be missed.
