Thomas O. Anderson

One year after your passing your pressence is still felt and remembered. We all love you and reflect back to your wise words passed down to us throughout the years. You will be with us forever!

To the Anderson children, it is with great sadness that I have found this book. As most of you may recall 25 years ago I spent a great deal of my life in the presents of Tom and Tune. I find myself in daydream thinking of the many, many, fond memories I have of that time in my life. As you all must be sad for your loss I want you to know I only can think of your parents and smile. I know for the years I was close to your Mom and Dad that they were allways both most proud of all of there...

Mr. A, as I so dubbed you... Here's to a wonderful father and most definitely the best father in law I could imagine. You could always make me smile as I'm sure you did many people throughout your life. You touched the hearts of so many and my family and yours will greatly miss you Love, Jeannie

Thank for you for being such a wonderful father to Teri and her brothers. Thanks also for always making me feel so welcome when visiting. I've always admired your accomplishments, and of the many you can be proud of, your children are perhaps the greatest. May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

Pop-Pop,
You were such a good man with countless memorable qualities that I'm really going to miss. Thank you so much for everything you have done for me and the family over the years. I regret not coming home to see you and to have a nice chit-chat. You were loved by so many people and I feel like a huge part of my life is missing now. I'll love and remember you always.
Thanks for all of the things you have done in your life and for sharing your big heart with everyone around...

Dad,
I remember the first time I met you...Sunday afternoon at the dinner table, 1979. 3 generations sitting around enjoying life. It was my joy to share that experience for many many years, and with the next generation added to the fun. Dad- you were a "humble family guy" to us. You continued the legacy of MomMom and PopPop's unconditional love of family, It was a great lesson that I'm still praying I'll learn. We kids felt so welcome and treasured every time we came- how...

I didn't really know you but I do know you through the children you raised to adulthood. And most especially Tyler Anderson. He is his father all over again. Thank you and God bless.
