Michael Anderson

The youngest of 4 children, he was born on May 8, 1947, in Ogden, Utah, to Byron and Dorothy Anderson. He graduated from Ogden High School in 1965 and served 9 years as a military reservist and guardsman. He dedicated 35 years as a civil engineer at Hill Air Force Base. After retiring he became a school bus driver for 16 years. His loyal and dependable nature secured life long friends at both jobs. His thrill was driving his own grandkids on school routes and field trips.

Mike was sealed to Pamela Afton Judd on November 10, 1966 and was married for more than 40 years after which they parted as friends. Their shared life brought them four children whom he considered life’s greatest treasure: Kimberly Michelle Staples (Joe), Aimee Louise Fellows (Chad), Karen Lyn Garff (Brad), and Michael Judd Anderson. He is survived by two sisters, Sharon Wheelwright and Jean Williamson, his children, 12 grandchildren, and nine great-grandchildren. He is preceded in death by his parents, his brother, Arden Anderson, a granddaughter, Maya Michelle Staples, and his little dog, Sugar.

Mike found joy in hunting and fishing. As a member of The LDS Church he served in various callings. He was constantly serving his family and was a loved friend. He will be greatly missed.

A Memorial Service will be held at 2:00pm on Saturday, January 11, 2025 at the LDS church, 3161 W 150 N, Layton, where friends and family may gather from 12:30-1:45pm prior to the service.
