Obituary

Kenneth Edward Anderson peacefully passed away at the age of 92, with his daughter Penelope by his side, at the Fergus Falls Veterans Home on the morning of November 3, 2025.

Born on June 2, 1933, in White Rock, South Dakota, to Frank and Mable Anderson, Kenneth was the youngest of five siblings. He grew up on the family farm in Morris, Minnesota, where he later graduated from high school in 1951. He went on to earn a degree in accounting from the Minnesota School of Business before being drafted into the United States Army. Kenneth proudly served in the Korean War from June 1953 to July 1955, when he was honorably discharged.

Kenneth was the devoted husband of Marjorie Anderson for 43 years, until her passing in 2015. Together, they made their home in Anoka, Minnesota, and raised four children: Curtis, Penelope, Melanie, and Denise.

A dedicated worker, Kenneth spent 30 years at Benada Aluminum Co. before retiring. He also owned and operated his own business, Anderson Tax Service, for many years. Even after retirement, his strong work ethic continued as he faithfully delivered the Anoka County Shopper every Sunday.

Kenneth was an avid Minnesota Vikings fan and the ultimate "Mr. Fix-It." He loved home projects, tinkering, yard work, and spending time traveling with his beloved wife.

He will be remembered as a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather -

a man whose gentle spirit, humor, and kind heart touched all who knew him.

For a life well lived and remembered with love—may you rest in eternal peace.
