Richard Wayne Anderson, a cherished husband, and dedicated veteran, passed away peacefully on December 14, 2024, at Georgetown Community Hospital, at the age of 57. He was born on November 1, 1967, in Indiana and lived a life full of passion, service, and creativity.

Richard proudly served his country as a Master Sergeant in the United States Air Force, where he was deployed during three wars: Desert Shield, Desert Storm, and the Iraq War. His commitment to his country and his comrades exemplified his character, and he remained a steadfast supporter of his fellow veterans throughout his life.

In his professional life, Richard worked as a Lineman Technician for AT&T, where his technical skills and dedication were highly valued.
