Mr.Anderson took me on a field trip to the Anderson's Maumee store and showed me the silos in 1977 when I attended Woodward High School.I got to thak him years later!RIP

When I graduated from Maumee High School I got a summer job working out in the yard. Dick was in charge of the market and other things. I eventually got a job during summers working as their courier. My favorite job was working and eventually running the summer program on the farm for the employees children.
The entire Anderson family was phenomenal and I will always treasure my time with all of them. Dick's wife Frannie, was a classmate of my sister so I used to hear all the...

While I did not personally know Brother Dick he was a legend at MSU FarmHouse. My Voc-Ag teacher Robert E. Braden knew Dick well and shared his respect for the Anderson family...business...and philanthropy. I became a member in 1963 and always heard and read of his beliefs and contributions.

We are sad for his loss and very PROUD of his work ethic, tenacity, knowledge, and values.

Dick will join his parents and siblings in heaven and the line of FarmHouse men will surround him...

Of all the family, I remember Dick the most. I remember meeting him as a child and shaking his enormous hands which were accompanied by a warm, friendly smile. I am honored to be a distant relative. My condolences to the family. Tricia Gudeman (Bill - cousin to Dick - and Pat Howard's youngest)

To The Anderson Family:
May you find comfort in warm memories of the beautiful life that has passed. May you find peace in the assurance that an even more beautiful life has begun for your loved one. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I knew Dick and many of his sons. He and they are such positive and generous people. The world will be less with him gone.

It is with fond memories that I recall my opportunity to know Dick and his family. I am one of the fortunate ones in this world who had the chance to learn the grain business from the most honest, hardworking, charitable people in the business. To this day I know their core belief of treating the customer as you would want to be treated made them leaders that so many others can learn from and look up to. Thank you and God Bless.

I am so sorry to hear of Dick's passing, but know he is in Heaven, doing what Dick always did..and that was, managing the business and, even more important to him, being a wonderful father, husband and human being!!!
I have spent many a week-end with Frannie and Dick in their gorgeous home and have many memories not only of those week-ends, but of many years of friendship, growing up, with Frannie.
Happy journey Dick, you will add much light to Heaven!!!
