On November 21, 2007 we lost our beloved Wesley Ryan Anderson. Wes, as he was more affectionately known, passed away peacefully and painlessly at the young age of 25 years. After getting up to make breakfast for the love of his life, Paige; he sent her out the door with a homemade lunch, complete with a love note on her napkin. With their little dog, Bella, in arm, he went back to bed, where he passed away from an undiagnosed heart complication. After Wes was found by his little sister and brother-in-law, medical personnel worked diligently to revive him. They went above and beyond their duties but were unable to bring him back. His family was told his heart was enlarged. How fitting that Wes passed away because his heart was too big.

Wes lived in Provo, Utah. He was born on January 22, 1982 in Panorama City, California, to Richard and Annette Anderson. He was the fifth of six children. Wes was raised in Acton, California, where his football career began on the dance floor at Dancin' in Acton. How else could such a big, manly man have been so graceful on that football field? Wes attended Vasquez High School in Acton, where he was the star football player — GO #35! He served a two-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the France-Talouse Mission. Upon returning from his mission he lived in Malibu with his brother and sister-in-law, Andrew and Rachel, while attending and playing football for Pierce College. He later moved in with his Grandma Sue and transferred to College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, California, where his elite football skills were noticed and he transferred to BYU. In 2006, he met Paige Mikel DuVal, and the happy couple were sealed for eternity on February 15, 2007 in the Salt Lake City Temple. With his BYU graduation only months away, Wes was planning on attending chiropractic school where he would fulfill his dreams of becoming a chiropractor.

Wes was a family man who was so happy just being with those he loved. From golf to board games, he loved it all, and liked to play until he won! He was an athlete who loved sports and was a natural at all of them. On several of his regular sleepwalking escapades, Wes rescued those he loved from everything from spiders to falling pianos. Truly his father's son, Wes always had a project going, and he always put his whole self into it. His most recent conquest was remodeling a home.

Wes was a man with many friends and not a single enemy. Nobody could ever stay mad at him, he wouldn't let them! He touched so many lives during his short stay on earth. He made us all laugh, and he showed us how much he loved us. We all love him so much and will miss everything about him, even the sarcasm.

Wes is survived by his loving wife, Paige; parents, Richard and Annette; brothers: Christopher, Andrew (Rachel), and Curtis (Tristan); sisters, Tori Anderson-Odom and Shay (Kioa) Fifita; nieces, Mya and Zoe; nephews, Ivan and Jackson; grandmother, Ethel Anderson; and his newly aquired family, Eric and Robyn Adams, Greg and Pam DuVal, and the entire DuVal, Hathaway, and Thayer families who loved him as their own. Funeral services for Wes will be held on Monday, November 26, 2007 at 2:00 p.m. at the Grandview 11th Ward, 900 West 2150 North in Provo. For those wishing to attend, friends may call at 12:30 p.m. at the ward chapel. Interment East Lawn Memorial Hills, Provo.
