Always so sweet. Loved her. Our condolences to your family. May God’s love comfort ya’ll.
Condolences from the Harris family.
My condolences to the family. I resided and grew up next door to Clifford and Clinton. During my younger years I can recall Mrs. Anderson always was there to keep us on the right path. She always had whatever we needed whether it was a bologna sandwich or a cold glass of water ( when we were not drinking out of the garden hose). Mrs. Anderson
was so polite and such a sweet person and I will always remember my childhood memories. Mrs. Anderson, you were a great lady and you had an impact on my life. The good Lord has truly received an angel. Rest easy Mrs. Anderson, you will be missed but not forgotten.
