Leslie Scott Anderson
November 29, 1952 - September 12, 2017

Leslie Scott Anderson, age 64, died peacefully on September 12, 2017, at Mercy Medical Center in Mason City, Iowa, with his family close by his side.

He was born on November 29, 1952, in Albert Lea, Minnesota, to Lester and Pearl (Enderson) Anderson. Baptized on Palm Sunday sixty-four years ago and confirmed at the Synod Lutheran Church in Lake Mills in 1967, he attended Lake Mills Community schools. Later, he worked for Larson Manufacturing and Deluxe Products in Lake Mills, Winnebago Industries in Forest City, and finally for Russ Hardy in Mason City.

He loved to tell stories and joke with his family and friends. He collected all sorts of things, loved flowers, antiques, and beautiful things, but above all, he loved God, his family, and close friends.

Les is survived by his seven siblings: Judy Anderson, of Albert Lea, Minnesota, Sharon (Ray) Smith, of Blaine, Minnesota, Steven (Leanna) Anderson, of Lake Mills, Cindy (Kerm) Balvance, of Forest City, Kathy (Jim) Thompson, of Lake Mills, Peggy (J.B.) Hamersly, of Glennville, Minnesota, and Craig Anderson, of Lake Mills; his nieces, grand-nieces, nephews, and grand-nephews: Stephanie (Kevin) Starcevich, along with Tyler, Nick, and Eva, of Blaine, Minnesota, Shelly (Mark) Dubay, Alisha and Logan, of Rogers, Minnesota, Matt (Teresa) Anderson, and Evie and Evan, of Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, Brad Thompson, and Paige, Kylee, Ella, and Ethan, of Lake Mills, James Hamersly, Emily (Jesse) Boren, and Ayden and Ethan, all of Albert Lea, Minnesota, and Corey (Erica) Anderson, of Cedar Falls, Iowa; his step-nephews: Derick (Shannon) and Bryce (Jess) Aukes and Bennet and Briley, all of Forest City; two aunts, Betty Nappe and Jenine Enderson; many cousins; and his close friends, Harris and LeAnn Honsey, of Lake Mills; as well as by his other many friends and care-givers at the Good Samaritan Center in Forest City where he made his home these last seven years. He will, certainly, be missed by all who knew and loved him! Les was preceded in death by his parents, Lester and Pearl Anderson; as well as by his grandparents, aunts, uncles, and one cousin.

A memorial service will be held at 11:00 AM on Friday, September 15, 2017, at the Synod Evangelical Lutheran Church in Lake Mills with Rev. David Emmons officiating. Inurnment will follow in the Salem Memorial Cemetery. Visitation will be for one hour before the service at the church on Friday.
