Steven Andersen Obituary

Steven Andersen

November 19, 1952 - September 30, 2023

Ivins, Utah - Steven B. Andersen, the most generous, funny, kind, and brilliant human to ever walk the earth, left us September 30, 2023, after a brief illness with Leukemia. He was surrounded by his family.

He grew up in Ogden, Utah, and attend Ogden High School, the University of Utah, and Brigham Young University Law School. He was passionate about his work, in helping clients with legal problems. He loved to figure out challenging issues.

He loved traveling to Austria, where he served his LDS mission. But his superpower was husband, father, grandfather, and brother. He loved being "Opa" to Theo and Anzach. He took joy in traveling with his family. Those trips were some of our most cherished memories.

He will be laid to rest on Friday, October 6, 2023, in the place he loved most, Southern Utah, among the red rock, where he hiked often and enjoyed the outdoors.

He will be dearly missed by his wife, Bethanne, his sons, Tye and Chase, his daughter-in-law, Kaeli, grandsons, Theo and Anzach Andersen, as well as his sisters, Patti Thompson and Susan Yeaton.

Arrangements are made under the direction of Spilsbury Mortuary, 110 S. Bluff Street, St. George, Utah. 435-673-2454.

Friends and family are invited to sign Steven's online guest book at www.spilsburymortuary.com

Steve was good friend and band member during high school in Ogden, Ut. Wish I could have met with him again during the latter years.

One of the best home teachers. Always a humorous opinion, a well thought out discussion, a warm smile and a wonderful friend. We are better people for Steven being in our lives.
