Fay Evangeline Anderson
February 18, 1926 - June 5, 2021
FAY'S OBITUARY
February 18, 1926 – June 5, 2021
Fay Evangeline Neitzke Anderson was born in Lewiston, Minnesota on February 18, 1926, the first child of John and Bessie Neitzke. She grew up on the family farm in Rochester, graduating in 1944 from Lewiston High School. Fay then became an R.N., graduating from Kahler Hospital School of Nursing in Rochester, Minnesota.
In 1948, Fay moved to Santa Barbara, California where she worked at Cottage Hospital, attended Westmont College, and met her future husband, George Anderson, at the Open Bible Church. They married on June 5, 1949, and were later blessed with three children, Julie Lynn, Lori Jean, and Mark Steven.
Fay's Christian faith was predominant in her life; she was deeply involved in every church they attended, as a Bible teacher and musician, and in children's ministry. She also served as an administrator in Bible Study Fellowship, as president of the school Parent Teacher Association, and, off and on, as a nurse.
In 1984, the two moved to Oregon where they spent the rest of their years together before George's death in 1997. They enjoyed traveling in their series of motorhomes and were active members of Emmanuel Bible Church in Salem. Fay loved spending time with her ten grandchildren, teaching Bible Studies until just the last few years when her eyesight became severely limited, and baking her famous pies, date bars, and chocolate chip cookies.
During the final years of her life, Fay lived in the Springs at Sunnyview Retirement community, and then at The Woods at Willow Creek assisted living (now The Springs at Willow Creek).
Surviving Fay are daughter Julie and her husband, Bill Tourtellotte of Salem, daughter Lori and her husband, Doug Wheeler of Renton, Washington, son Mark and his wife, Sandy of LaVerne, California, her brother Roger Neitzke and his wife Ruby, sister-in-law Allene Neitzke, and brother-in-law Dwight Anderson. Her grandchildren include Nathan, Sean, and Michael Tourtellotte, Caleb and Gabriel Wheeler, and Jessica Lambert, Valya Valenzuela, Kaylie (who preceded her to heaven), Noah, and Tommie Anderson, as well as her ten great-granchildren.
Fay was much loved by many, and will be deeply missed.
A funeral service is planned for June 26, 2021, at 1:00 p.m. at Emmanuel Bible Church, and will be streamed online as well.
