With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Brian K. Anderson, a beloved husband, father, grandpa, brother, and friend, who left this world on Sunday, April 13, 2025, at the age of 69 after a 9-month battle with cancer. He was surrounded by his loving family in his final hours. Born in Kenosha, WI on June 2, 1955, to Earl and Jeanne (Hammel) Anderson. He was a graduate of Tremper High School.
On August 29, 1981, he married the love of his life Maureen Powers.
In his earlier years he was an avid Harley Davidson rider. He enjoyed being a Bucks season ticket holder and would have loved to see them go to the playoffs. Brian had a love for live music and spent time listening with his wife and friends. He was a role model in the local recovery community and a revered mentor to other people in recovery. He was a “jack of all trades” and knew a bit about everything from small engine repair to gardening and was always willing to use his skills to help others. He worked hard as a machinist at LPI, Abbott Laboratories/Hospira, and Ocean Spray, where he was awarded employee of the year. After retirement he loved spending time with family, traveling, and helping to care for his grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife, Maureen; his daughters, Michelle (Bryan) Koss, Rachael (David) Wright and Janelle (Corey) Heim; his grandchildren, Connor, Della, Veda, Bryson, Calvin, Ava, McKenna and Owen; his siblings, Mark (Margie) Anderson, and Linda Milke and many nieces and nephews.
