Edith Christine Anderson, 89, long time resident of Duluth, Allendale Ave, passed away on April 24, 2004. She was born Dec. 21, 1914 to Christ and Alma (Christianson) Andersen in Duluth. She grew up in Homecroft and graduated from Central High School in 1932.
She worked at the Lincoln Hotel, Arrowhead Hotel and the Spaulding Hotel where she met Runar S. Anderson. They were married June 30, 1940. She was a devoted wife and mother of four children. She was a member of the Cobb School PTA and Woodland Legion Auxilary. She was a member of the Woodland United Methodist Church, now Hope United Methodist Church. She belonged to a sewing club with her friends for over 60 years. Besides her family, she loved gardening and spending time at the cabin fishing.
