David Curtis Andersen, a loving son, brother, and father, passed away at his home in Salt Lake City at the age of sixty-nine.

He is survived by his mother, Dorothy Spencer Andersen; son, Michael (Alece) Rutherford, daughter, Danielle Andersen; step-daughter, Angie (Jay) Sanderson; former wives, Deborah Williams, Judy Sorenson, Sally Rutherford, and Barbara Andersen; brother, Jon (Leslie) Andersen; niece, Erin (Sam) Clark; and nephew, Daniel Andersen. Preceded in death by his father, Cyril F. Andersen; and brother, Paul Spencer Andersen.

David was born August 25, 1948 in Salt Lake City. A remarkably gifted transportation and product designer, David loved to learn about and draw cars from a very young age, leading him to eventually win a prestigious Fisher Body Award at the age of eighteen, graduate from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California with Honors, and establish design agencies and business associations with numerous leading clients. David was a true innovator and held many patents over his lifetime. His first patent was awarded while he was still in high school and his last just a week ago.

As a young man, David served a mission for the LDS Church in the Florida Tallahassee mission where he would watch the Apollo launches in awe from Titusville. He served faithfully and diligently as a High Priest and Home Teacher.

With an unrelenting passion for far-reaching technologies, David was also an unabashed Star Trek and Comic-Con fan, sharing his love and interests with his children. In recent years, he lived with and selflessly cared for his mother, Dorothy. We will miss him dearly.

Funeral services will be held on Thursday, August 16, 2018 at 11:00 a.m. in the Indian Hills Ward Chapel, 1320 South Wasatch Drive (2425 East), Salt Lake City, with a viewing beforehand from 9:30-10:30 a.m. An additional viewing will be held on Wednesday, August 15, 2018 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. at Larkin Sunset Lawn, 2350 East 1300 South, Salt Lake City.
