Not sure what to say?

I just learned of Mr Anderson's Death. He was one of my teachers at Sumner High School, and everything that has been written about him is true. He was a kind, compassionate man, and was one of my favorite teachers. The world is a darker place and he will be missed by many. RIP Mr Anderson

Good man and a great human being. Inspired many,beloved Coach,Friend,and Mentor. Til we meet again.

Barbie and Darrel Sharrard loved being friends of John and Myrna. I know they are welcome him with lots of hugs and joy. Our family sends our thoughts and prayers during this time

I will always remember John just as he's described in his obituary. He always had time to listen to you and make you feel like you were the most important person in the world. He was a gentleman and truly a class-act. We should all strive to be the person and community stalwart that John Anderson was. He is missed...

John was truly one of the greats... not because of his accomplishments, though they were many, but because of the man he was. I feel so blessed to have known him. Until we meet again dear friend.

One of my favorite memories is getting to ride with Kerri on a bus to the King Dome to watch John take Sumner to a State Championship win. He always cheered us on in soccer and will always be remembered for his warm welcomes and big smiles...God bless y´all.

John was a true friend and one of the quiet best humans on the planet. He was just one of those people you never forget for all the right reasons and are so grateful that I got to share my life with. He was a special one for sure. The cream of the crop. God rest your soul John.
