Dear Bill and Doug. We enjoyed visiting your lovely mother each and every time we came east. She was always so gracious and welcoming. You have lost a wonderful member of the family, but she and Wilbur have left behind a strong legacy in the valley. Their story and yours are still being written. Love and condolences from Andy and Donna Ness.

Sincere Condolences, Bill, Doug and families. Your Mom was a gracious lady with a fun outlook on life. I did see her some time ago when I visited Ruth at the residence and of course she was playing the piano at the time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.

I met Mrs Anderson at the Residence when my Mom went to live there a few years ago. What a lovely lady she was! She made sure that my Mom felt « at home ». My sisters and I loved to visit with her when we were there and of course listen to her play the piano. She made an impression on everyone I am sure with her wit, caring ways and that beautiful smile. My condolences to her family.
May she rest in peace.
