Jesse Bernard Anderson's Obituary
Our beloved husband, father, grandfather and brother Jesse Bernard Anderson passed away on April 25, 2024. He was born June 8, 1942. Jesse was so talented in many ways. He earned his pilot’s license at the age of 16 and enjoyed flying the most. He loved his horses and driving them so much that he built several wagons and carts for them to pull. Another talent was building houses and farming.
He was a very caring person, always helping anyone in need. This was also true with his career as a Firefighter and E.M.T. for 30 years. His greatest love was for his family. In his younger years he was a 4H leader and loved taking his daughters to rodeos, on overnight campouts, horseback riding, skiing and deer hunting. He not only had love for his immediate family, but had an equal love for his foster family, the Wilkinsons. Dorothy and Harry who brought him into their home at a young age and raised him as their own. To this day and always he will be their son, brother and "Uncle Bernie.
Preceded in death were his parents Martha and Jesse, 2 Sisters Gae and Mae, 3 brothers Richard, John and Stephen, 2 grandsons Weston and Dyllan, and 1 Son-in-law, Scott. He is survived by his beloved wife and best friend Andrea, his daughters Lisa, Wendy (Clark) and Vicki, 4 granddaughters and 3 great granddaughters.
