Steven Robert "Foo" Anderson

We are sorry for your loss

Twenty years ago, at the beginning of my career in corrections I was introduced to Steve. From that first moment I was a believer. As soon as the opportunity came for me to become a trainer, I seized the moment. During my interview Steve asked, “why are you here”? My response,” I see how you and those who train under you are respected, I want a piece of that”. Steve smiled and said “Good luck with that”

I am forever grateful to you & Annette for giving us (Cooper) a place to stay, your love,support and at times being that "Extra Dad" when I needed it most.

Thank you Steve for always being there for our family. Our son an daughters are so grateful for the helping hand you and Annette so readily extended anytime there was a need. You provided sound advice, excellent guidance and even occasional temporary lodging. You were their guardian angel.Your smile, laugh and wit brightened up all of our holiday gatherings and will be greatly missed but never forgotten. You were so tough while enduring such pain and suffering over the past 1 1/2 years....

I worked with Steve as a part time officer at the MN State Fair. More than a coworker, I thought of Steve as a friend. Someone posted a picture in the Guest Book from the Back to the 50's at the Fair. Left to right is Sharon Anderson, Me, Steve and James Packard.
