Charles Anderson Obituary
Charles Edward Anderson Sr, born September 20, 1940, joined his Lord and Savior in heaven Thursday, April 3, 2025. His absence is deeply felt by his family: the love of his life and wife of 64 years, Janice, and children Jennifer (Marc), Charles "Andy" Jr (Linda), Jeff (Carolyn), Jacque (Mike), and Jessica (Emosi), along with his 17 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.
Whether you knew Charles by his given name or Charlie, Chuck, Ed, Eddy, Andy, C.E., Dad, Papa... you knew he loved Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior and was faithful to follow, obey, and share his faith with others.
We have lost a wise, witty man of God, as well as a powerful prayer warrior. Our peace comes from knowing Charles is enjoying being in God's presence and that we will see him there when it's our time.
A Celebration of life service will be Thursday, April 10th, at Fox Valley Church in Carpentersville. Visitation at 10 and the service at 11.
In lieu of flowers, you can donate to Samaritan's Purse, a ministry that is helping so many people in need.

Ed was a very loving and caring man. A great man of God. I was glad I got to know and share time with the family. He is greatly missed. But knowing one day we will all be together in Heaven.
