Arthur Anderson Obituary
Memorial Service at CHRIST THE KING LUTHERAN CHURCH 4600 N. Pilgrim Rd. Friday, December 16, 7PM. In lieu of flowers, memorials appreciated to Christ The King Lutheran Church.
Arthur loved his chosen profession-a jeweler. He had been in the jewelry business for over 50 years and was the owner of Arthur Anderson Jewelers. His trademark was his jeweler's loupe which he wore everyday. He and his family moved to Brookfield when Capitol Dr. was just a two lane road. He was one of the founding fathers and first alderman of the city of Brookfield. He served eighteen years as a member of the common council. He also was a charter member of the Brookfield Kiwanis Club and the Woodside PTA, serving for 10 years. Art was also the general chairman of Christ the King Lutheran Church building fund, former church council member, former Boy Scout commissioner, manager of a championship little league team for eight years, and member of the principals cabinet of Brookfield East. He was also a former member of the Transportation Club, Traffic Club, City of Hope Milwaukee Chapter and North Hills Country Club.
Arthur was an avid sportsman. He loved sharing and teaching his children and grandchildren how to bowl, golf, hunt, fish, play baseball and football, swim, play cards and water ski, which he himself did until the age of 67. We have so many wonderful memories of you to cherish.
We will always remember your
favorite saying -
"The squeaky wheel gets the oil!"

I miss my Dad alot. He always wanted the best for his kids and grandkids - and was so proud of them. He loved being with people - and went the extra mile to provide for the people he loved. We have so many memories to thank Dad for - so many new experiences that he provided. I thank Gof for the blessing of my Dad.

My condolences to the Anderson family. I have fond memories of our Anderson - Stevens family trip to a northern Wisc. lake one summer. Cy & Lenore Stevens were my parents. My best to your family.

Although Art was my uncle, he was really more like an older brother. Fifty two years ago we played on the same softball team, went fishing in a rubber raft on Pewaukee Lake, and sat night after night in what was then new County Stadium watching Hank Aaron, Eddie Matthews, Joe Adcock, Warren Spahn and other now legendary players playing for the old Milwaukee Braves. Although we lived in New York for many years, return trips to Iowa and Nebraska to see our parents always included a side trip to Brookfield because my wife Pat and my sons Jeff and Steve came to love Art and Anna Mae as much as I did. May the God of love bless and comfort all those who mourn his passing.

I have many great memories of my best friend's Granfather "Papa Anderson". The best one of all was when Papa took Steve Mehnert and I on our first hunting trip to the farm in Iowa. I will cherish the memories and pass the tradition on. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.

Our family lived next door to the Anderson's for more than 20 years. I remember being able to go over to their house and play with Chrissy's barbie dolls. Cousin Art and Anna Mae always had an open door for anyone in need. I remember one year when we had a really bad ice storm and the power went out throughout the whole neighborhood. Cousin Art and Anna Mae opened up their doors to our family so that we could warm ourselves by the fire. My deepest sympathies go out to the Anderson family in the loss of such a wonderful man. He will be greatly missed by many people. Good bless and love to all. Missy

I was blessed to live next door to Cousin Art and Anna Mae for 12 years. I have so many wonderful memories of parties and just visits with Art and his family. Cousin Art always had a way of making me feel special, I'm sure he had that impact on everyone in his life. My heart is heavy for the loss of this loved one and I pray all who knew and loved him will find peace and joy in all their memories. I look forward to a reunion with Art with our dear Lord and Savior. God Bless.
Love Karla

As a child our family (Jim, Bonnie, Sara and Joe Tuecke) made many trips to Brookfield for visits. I have great memories of Uncle Art taking us to the County Stadium to see the Brewers, swimming in the backyard pool, the fair, and great fireworks. Art always made time for the kids and loved to share stories. I am thankful for all the memories made with Art and Anna Mae.

I grew up with Art and the Anderson family. They were a part of my family even when we moved away. Knowing he has passed on to be with the Lord is both comforting and also leaves a great sense of loss. Some friends and family just seem like they should never leave us. Thanks for all the good memories Art. God bless you and all of your family.

I will always remember my great Uncle Art as a very generous and kind person. I spent Thanksgiving with the Andersons a few years ago and after I left, I got into a car accident. Uncle Art was the first one on the scene (with Steve and Jenny, too!) to give me a helping hand. He will be missed.

Papa is a very special person to this family. He will be missed and always in our hearts. He has a very warm and welcoming family and I am happy to be a part of it for six years now. His daughter Christine is the best step-mom anyone could ask for. Thank you for everything that you've done and continue to shine down on us from heaven.

I spent many wonderful, happy weeks in the home of my Uncle Art when I was a kid and throughout my entire adult life. I will always think of Art when I wear the many pieces of jewelry I got from him. Some are very special because they were designed just for me. Although my visits to Brookfield will always be a part of my life, Art will always be missed. My prayers and sympathy to all those that loved him.

I used to work at Republic Associates Insurance, where Art was one of our customers. He was such a very sweet man, always had a kind word to say. His visits were a bright spot in my day and he'd always know how to put a smile on my face. I know he will be missed by everyone who's lives he touched. My deepest sympathies to his family. My thoughts & prayers are with you all.
