Carl & Bea were really salt of the earth. They were totally dedicated to their family and were involved with their childrens' every activity growing up. I always felt very welcomed in the Andersen household as did all who visited.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Carl and his family. I always enjoyed visiting with Carl when our dental clinic was at Brookestone. He always wanted a good back scatching!! Thank you for allowing us to treat Carl in our dental clinic. The staff at Delivered Dental Services.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family! It has been a great honor to have Marcie bring me into her family and get to know all of you! Carl and Bea were so kind to me and my girls. So many memories getting to stay occasional weekends at their house with Marcie and her kids, enjoying the pool, food, beverages and great hospitality! Loved the cats! I have become a Husker fan thanks to your family also! I truly hope the weather allows me to come to the service on Tuesday. May god bless each and every one of you... and I love ya Marcie!
