Shirley Lauver Anderson obituary

 Obituary

Shirley Lauver Anderson

1930 - 2019

St. George - Shirley Lauver Anderson, 89, passed away February 9, 2019. She grew up in Cheyenne, Wyoming, the daughter Merle and Annie Lauver. She attended Brigham Young University, where she studied theater arts and was also the 1947 Banyan Queen. While attending BYU she met a dashing, young former Army Air Corps Pilot, Arthur Burton Anderson ("Art"), whom she married on August 6, 1948.

With the outbreak of the Korean War, Art was recalled into the United States Air Force, and Shirley became a military wife for the next 20+ years. At each new move, and while raising a family, Shirley was routinely engaged in meaningful community service and volunteerism.

In the mid 1950's, she served for three years as a mental health volunteer at The Utah State Mental Hospital in Provo, Utah. She was the first female volunteer to work in the challenging environs of the violent men's ward. She coordinated nursing home visits and other compassionate service efforts as a member of the leadership of the Officers Wives Club at Chanute AFB, Illinois and while stationed in Europe served in many volunteer capacities and also in support of Art as he served as Branch President of the American LDS Branch in Wiesbaden, Germany. Years later in Utah, Shirley was a regular volunteer at the Salt Lake County Juvenile Detention Center, and following the move to St. George, served as a Victims Advocate for Washington County, a member of the St. George City Planning Commission, and a volunteer at the Miracle Manor Retirement home.

Shirley had a love of all animals whether they had scales, fur, or feathers and she delighted in her volunteer work at the St. George Animal Shelter. At the time of her death, she was an active member of the Assistance League of Southern Utah.

Being a Wyoming girl, Shirley loved to shoot guns, was a crack shot, and carried a valid conceal/carry permit. Even recently, she enjoyed slipping away on the weekends with her son, Mike, to the desert to shoot targets.

From her childhood, she was an avid fisherman. She and Art loved trailer camping, boating and traveling. Among her greatest loves were music and theater with acting roles in little theater while in Maryland in Blithe Spirit and Li'l Abner. She served as a casting director's assistant for several feature films produced in Southern Utah in the 1980s.

She was also an avid writer, producer and energetic director of MIA Roadshows as well as a tireless church chorister - frequently with her daughter, Kris, at the piano over the many years of such service. Her favorite holiday, often to the chagrin and sometimes astonishment of her children and their friends was Halloween. Enough said.

Shirley and Art enjoyed their activity in the LDS Church which included a mission to Australia and Oregon. Throughout her life, writing to missionaries was like a sport to Shirley. She would type letters (often on toilet paper or some other unexpected medium) and fill envelopes with clippings, comics, and local stories to brighten a young missionary's day.

Shirley's greatest treasure was her family, which included five children: sons: Timothy B. (Kathryn) and Michael B. (Kelly); daughters: Kris (LuWayne), Kelly of St. George, UT, and Heidi (Jerry) Hansen of Carlsbad, CA; 21 grandchildren and 34 great-grandchildren. Shirley was preceded in death by her parents, two sisters, and her husband, Art. She was predeceased by Viva Kuechle of Anchorage, Alaska, her biological mother, with whom she connected later in life and enjoyed a wonderful relationship for several years.

 Funeral Services will be held on Saturday, February 16, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. at the Desert Hills Ward Chapel, 675 East Desert Hills Drive, St. George, Utah. Visitations will be held Friday evening from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Metcalf Mortuary, 288 West St. George Blvd. and on Saturday, prior to services, from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. at the church. Interment will be in the Tonaquint Cemetery. Arrangements entrusted to the care of Metcalf Mortuary, (435) 673-4221.

Shirley suggests that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to Assistance League of Southern Utah www.assistanceleague.org/southern-utah/

1949-2017

Mark Anderson, born November 18, 1949, passed away peacefully in the early morning of February 8, 2017.  After what has been a cold, harsh winter, it proved to be a warm, beautiful, sunny day, and he was surrounded by those closest to him.

Selfless, and with a remarkable work ethic, Mark devoted himself to others. He was an inspiring leader, volunteer, and teacher, as well as a true and dedicated friend.  Filled with an explorer's curiosity, he loved the outdoors and pursude adventure without hesitation or fear.  Mark's humor was good-natured and infectious, with tongue planted firmly in cheek.  He cultivated a strong faith, and was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  He was wonderfully uninhibited in his emotions and unfailing kindness, making him not only an exemplary man, but a truly devoted husband, an amazing father, and an exceptional Papa.  His legacy is one of love-an implicit understanding that "in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make."

Mark is survived by his beloved wife, Valerie, and his two sons, Justin (Alison) and Jeremy (Annie), as well as his four grandchildren, Ian, Isaac, Gabriel, and Kathleen.

Funeral services will be held Monday, February 13 at 11:30 A.M. (viewing to begin at 10:00 A.M.) at the Butler Hill Chapel, 2695 East 7000 South.

John Burton Anderson 

1930-2022

John Burton Anderson was born May 17th 1930 to Clarence Wilford Anderson and Mabel Burton Anderson. He was raised mostly in Riverside, CA. He was a little tow-headed boy, with glasses, the youngest of five children, with one sister and three brothers. Sometimes he was called “the little prophet” by older relatives because he was honest and earnest of heart and asked many questions.

John played football in high school. His beloved mother died when he was 16. He received an athletic scholarship to Brigham Young University and attended there for a year before he went to service as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in the New England States Mission. Upon the conclusion, he returned to BYU to finish college and play more football. He graduated from BYU in 1953. He found and married his “Sweetheart”, Shirley Anne Wilson Anderson on September 4th, 1953 in the Salt Lake Temple, laying a firm foundation for a strong family.

John served in the Army as Pentagon Agency Personnel, 1st Infantry Division, Fort Myer, VA for two years. While there, he received a telegram that his first baby girl Julie was born. Shirley Anne and the baby flew to Washington, D.C. in the spring of 1955 to be close to him.

After his honorable release from the Army, John attended the University of Utah Law School, and soon he and Shirley had two more little girls. They lived in Stadium Village Apartments during this time and he worked in a cement plant.

In time John became a corporate attorney and the couple bought a home in Sandy; he worked for Beneficial Life Insurance and then Prudential Federal Credit Union as consulting attorney. He and his beloved Shirley Anne had a total of six children, one son and five daughters. He felt raising a great family was his most important achievement. The family was raised at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, in Sandy, Utah. They skied, rode horses, had a boat, and built a barn.

During this time, John was called to be a Bishop, then a Stake President in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He and Shirley Anne gained many lifelong friends. The couple had the longest, funniest, happy banter of conversation between them, that created a loving atmosphere and standard for successful marriages for their children. He played the harmonica, built a barn as the couple went through all the struggles of family life, parenting teenagers, being a wonderful example to their family and friends. There were so many celebrations, reunions, parties, trips, and missions within the family.

Shirley Anne died at the age of 86. John missed her so fiercely, but lived to the age of 91 in the home of his daughter. By then he had total hearing loss, most of his eyesight was lost and some dementia, but continued faithful, hoping in the Lord’s promise of him being reunited with “his Sweetheart”. As his health waned, he made many beautiful wooden canes and walking sticks. John died on April 29th, 2022 at 1:00 am in the Beaver Valley Hospital surrounded by family.

John is survived by his six children and their spouses Julie (Craig) White, Denece (John) Stillings, Karilee (Kevin) Olsen, Laurie (Terry) Gale, Doug (Julie) Anderson, Amy (Thad) Waddoups; and a brother-in-law Doug (Jeannette) Wilson; grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Preceded in death by his wife.

A viewing will be held on Thursday, May 5th from 6:00 to 8:00 PM. Funeral services will be held on Friday, May 6th at 11:00 AM with a viewing one hour prior all services at Larkin Sunset Gardens, 1950 E. Dimple Dell Road (10600 S.), Sandy. UT.

With sincere gratitude we thank Craig and Julie White for their loving and constant care of our dad for the past 20 months. Special thanks to the Beaver medical professionals for dads’ care in his final hours.
