To the family of Elmer L. Andersen, I know death is a terrible thing to face, but everybody faces it someday in their life.

I wish to thank everyone for their beautiful memmories and thoughts concerning the death of my great Grandfather. They are very much appreciated! He was a wonderful friend, greatgrandfather, and to many, a role model. May we all learn to live by his example!

I am proud to possess a little book called "The Stratford Shakespeare Anthology," which was one of the souvenirs Elmer brought back for the employees of The Princeton Union-Eagle when he and Eleanor returned from a trip to Europe in 1978.

How Many are they
the contributions you made
which helped to mold the country
in which we know it today
how thankful we are
forgotten never will you be
for Jehovah God even he will remember all great deeds
for he offers everlasting life
to those righteous ones
who excercise faith in Him and Jesus Christ his son
So may the God of comfort be over your friends and family
I pray they stay close to him
The most...

We extend our sympathies to your great loss of Elmer. I never had the opportunity to meet him in person, but his spirit and knoweledge of life and as a mentor were shown at great length to my Great-Niece, Laura Rahm. His kindness will never be forgotten.
Sincerely,
Linda Hjort-Tatarian
