Ronald LeRoy Anderson, the son of Bert and Eva (Hodson) Anderson, was born July 19, 1942 in Forest City. He attended and graduated from Ventura High School in 1960. On November 24, 1961, he married Nancy Miller at the Ventura E.U.B. Church. They lived and farmed on the family farm northwest of Ventura where they raised their three children. In 1994, they moved to Sioux City where Ron worked as a salesman for Multipure. After retiring, they moved to Belmond to be closer to family. He enjoyed spending time with his family and watching his grandchildren’s activities, camping and NASCAR racing.
Ron was an avid Ventura Viking booster and a supporter of all his kids and grandchildren’s activities. His children also remember with fondness the cross-country camping vacations that Ron took them on.

Ron was a past member of Faith Lutheran Church in Miller and Morningside Lutheran Church in Sioux City. Ron was active as a council member at Faith Lutheran and was a well-known greeter that welcomed patrons in and out of church at Morningside in Sioux City.
