Keith "Swede" Anderson
Dec. 11, 1955 ~ Sept. 22, 2023
TWIN FALLS - Keith "Swede" Anderson of Twin Falls, Idaho died unexpectedly on September 22, 2023. Loving arms carried him to join his mom, dad, and grandparents. His pups, Molly and Jessie, were eagerly waiting to greet him.
Keith was born to Carol Jean (Hutchison) Anderson and Charles William Anderson on December 11, 1955 in Jerome, Idaho. He joined older brother, Dale, and their sister, Karlan, arrived soon after. The three children lost their mother early in life. Their father, Charles, later married Ann Malcomson. The family then welcomed their younger brother, Clinton.
Keith married Donette Conn and they were blessed with three children, Michael, Carol, and Cody. They later divorced. Keith treasured his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. His cousins also held a special place in his heart.
Keith proudly served his country in the US Army.
He loved anything with a motor and wheels. He made them go faster, painted and striped them, then rode or drove them as fast as possible. Bicycles came first, but he loved motorcycles, especially his Harley, and even raced them later in life. Keith was a tattoo enthusiast. Powerlifting was a hobby at which he excelled. He met many life-long friends through sports, cars, motorcycles, and work.
While working at Moore Business Forms, Keith met, and later married, Sue Werry. She really liked fast cars and learned to really like motorcycles as well. To her dismay, "fast" surprises sometimes showed up in the garage or driveway.
After Moore's, Keith worked at CSI as an Apprentice Electrician. Retiring in 2015 gave Keith more time to "ride". Cars and motorcycles were typical conversation with everyone Keith met, and Sue is convinced that Keith is talking fast cars and motorcycles with God.
Keith loved family and friends above all else.
He is survived by his wife of 20 years, Sue Werry of Twin Falls; his three children, Michael, Carol, and Cody; as well as grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, and stepmother, Ann Anderson of Kimberly, Idaho.
