Ivan S. Anderson, 94, of Enid OK, went home to be with his Lord and Savior on November 3, 2011. He was born on September 19, 1917, in Hunter OK and raised there. He was the son of Amanda (Karlson) Anderson and Seth A. Anderson, both born in Norway. He was the youngest of three children, and they lived east of Hunter on a farm. When he had hardly turned four years old, he rode a horse to first grade. He graduated from Hunter High School at age 16. Ivan loved to dance and sing at a young age and thought about that as a career. His favorite singers were Tommy Duncan and Bob Wills. He attended college in Southern California before deciding to return to Oklahoma. Ivan married Dorothy D. Schultz December 22, 1941, in Kansas. They lived northwest of Hunter, where he farmed on the farm Dorothy's dad's family claimed in the Oklahoma Land Run and lived in a dugout before building the house Ivan and Dorothy lived in. They belonged to Hunter Baptist Church. In 1966, they moved to Enid, where they became members of First Baptist Church. Ivan still farmed, sold real estate, and was an auctioneer. Ivan and Dorothy would have been married 70 years on December 22, 2010, if Dorothy hadn't passed away a few months before that date.
Ivan was preceded in death by his wife, his parents, and two sisters.
Ivan leaves behind his children Sherry Visich of Hunter, Larry Anderson of Hunter, Gayla Cain of Oklahoma City OK, and Carol Vollbrecht of Santa Monica CA; grandchildren Bobby, Heather, Tasha, Angie, Aubury, Rusty, Simon, Ellie, and Andrea; and great-grandchildren Brianna, Logan and Presley.
Ivan's life was farming and family. He never wanted to quit farming even after driving from Enid to Hunter for about 40 years to be a part of it. He loved and enjoyed life and will be greatly missed by all his family.
