“ She believes a close family is one that spends time together and is there for each other. She is their cheerleader, defender and comforter.”
Anderson, shows a serious drive to promote economic development in the Castle Country area by serving on various boards.
In the process she dedicates many hours of volunteer time to various causes. She is always doing fund raisers such as Relay for Life and encourages all of her co-workers to be involved. She organizes the Pie Auction and Bowling for a Cure.
She made it possible for a large amount of money collected from these events to be put aside for Castle Country residents to provide gas cards for those receiving cancer treatments.
Anderson also set up a scholarship fund for students diagnosed with cancer prior to being college age.
These selfless acts have created a blessing in the lives of those that suffer from a life altering disease.

A quote from her nomination application says its well. “Knowing her as a community member is a privilege. Knowing her as an employee is a blessing.”
