The Salt Lake Tribune, Thursday, 10 Jul 2003:

Ruth Jackson Anderson
1922 ~ 2003

     Ruth Jackson Anderson, 81, loving mother, grandmother, sister, and
friend peacefully passed away in her home Sunday, July 6, 2003, from the
effects of cancer.

     Ruth was born January 12, 1922 in Sutherland, Utah
to George R. and Rhoda Jackson and graduated from Delta High School and
Seminary. She attended Brigham Young University and during World War II
worked at the Ogden Arsenal.

     While living in Ogden, she met her future
husband. She married Robert W. Anderson on April 24, 1946 in the Salt Lake
LDS Temple. 

     They settled in Ogden, Utah where they lived 56 years,
then moved to American Fork, Utah in 2002. Ruth worked at Weber State University
as the secretary to the Nursing Department for 29 years, retiring in 1984.
She was active in the LDS Church, serving in the Primary, Relief Society,
and Young Women's Organizations. The loves of Ruth's life were her children
and grandchildren; to have her great-grandchildren visit was the highlight
of her day. She was a very loving and caring person who devoted her time
to her family and friends.

     Ruth is survived by her husband of American
Fork, her two children: R. Brent (Camille) Anderson, Highland, UT; and
Janet (Morgan) Parry, Las Vegas, NV. She is also survived by 12 grandchildren,
six great-grand-children and brother Lloyd Jackson, Moses Lake, WA. 

 
   Ruth was preceded in death by a great-grand-daughter, Maeve McNeal,
brothers: Bernard and Russell Jackson and sisters: Laverna Jackson, Lucy
Egan, Della Johnson, Maxene Owens, and Shirley Austin.

     Funeral Services
