John Anderson Obituary

John Frasier Anderson "Jack" passed away Wednesday, May 28, 2025, following a battle with cancer that he fought with the courage and fortitude that defined him throughout his life. He was born on Oct. 26, 1936, in Harmarville, son of the late John and Mary (Crighton) Anderson. He was preceded in death by his older brother, Arnold; his older sister, Eve Mae; and his younger brother, Robert "Bobby". He is survived by his beloved wife, Lois (Heinle) Anderson; and son, John. Jack was known for his calm demeanor and his ability to appreciate the humor and enjoyment of almost any crazy predicament in which he and Lois found themselves. He was a lifelong learner always interested in new ideas, new technology and new adventures. Funeral services will be private at a later date.
