I am so sorry for the loss of your mom. I have many memories of her & your dad. She’s now dancing with the rest of the angels. Sending hugs & love 💕
What a wonderful lady Nan was. She danced in my Thursday evening line dance class at the Legion when she was in her 80’s! Loved her sense of humour, her smile and her laugh. My sympathies to her family during this difficult time.
My childhood memories of the sweetest lady from the upper Mission. I will always remember Nan’s gardens-They were amazing and she would let me pick strawberries when ever I was eyeing the super big ones. Thank you Mrs. Andersen for the special childhood memories, you gained your angel wings-
Sincere condolences to the Anderson family ❤️
So sad to hear of the passing of Nanna; such a kind, friendly lady. My mother worked for her for many years and they later enjoyed friendship with their group at the Wawa Goose Club. My condolences to the Andersen family.
