To the family of Paul Anderson, Jr.:

Though he had been in declining health, the news of our loss was still met with sadness. Having had the good fortune of working with his children in our schools, from the onset he and his wife, "B", were a team who put their children's needs and educational goals first.

From always being available to support his children's academic endeavors, he gave freely of his time to help others as well. Not only were both parents high achievers themselves, Paul provided the kind of positive role modeling that most teachers would wish to be universal for all parents. When positive outcomes were our goals, we could count on the Andersons to help make them a reality.

From facilitating learning, while continuing his own, Paul leaves a legacy of positive, unselfish endeavors, that will never be forgotten. May he rest in peace, having lived an exemplary life dedicated to his family, friends, and the well-being of others.
