With great sadness for such a wonderful, loving person may, happy memories and many prayers fill your hearts forever. May, it also be comforting to remember that we can call on God & he will give us the needed strength to cope with our sorrows.(Psalms 55:16)

Don's Mother was my Dad's oldest sister, and our birthdays are 28 days apart. He was special and unique in his own way. When I first moved to OKC in 1962, we shared an apartment on north Robinson. We kept in touch over the yrs and would either email or call each other on our birthdays. My Aunt Joy (Don's mother) was very special and loving person. I know that there is a special celebration in Heaven tonight by the Anderson family. We miss them all, but we know that trusting in Jesus, as our personal savior, guarantees that we will all be reunited some day. Thank You Jesus for your sacrifice.
