Survived by his two daughters:
Linda Kay Anderson (b. June 17, 1941). Married Stephen Richard Osborn, May 1, 1959. Merry Joyce Anderson (b. 1946). Married Ronald Streeter, 1970.

(Hello, I'm Jeff Osborn, Linda's youngest son. Thought I'd add this-- my older brother Steve Jr. and I both loved Grandpa very much. I'm really sorry that Merry's 3 children never got to meet him, he would have loved them so, too).

(Grandma watched both Steve and I when we were young because the folks both worked at Maytag, like Grandpa did. Whenever we got in trouble, she'd make us sit in a chair in the corner. We always tried not to cause trouble until it was close to the end of Grandpa's shift, because he always paroled us when he got home),

(Everybody called him "Hank", and he preferred Henry to Robert. He smelled of Vitalis and Old Spice, loved football with a passion and loved to play cards-- cribbage and Solitaire and "War" with Steve and I, and watch WWII movies. He made a great concoction he called "Gulash" out of whatever he had around. When he was younger he ran around with 3 other men whose names began with 'H' and known as "The Four Hs"-- Hollis Spain (his future brother in law), Hiram (not sure about his last name), and "Hap" (also not sure of his last name).
