Brian Lee Anderson, 61, died January 4th after a four-year battle with kidney cancer. He was born in Aberdeen, Washington and attended school in Spokane, Washington and Salem, Oregon. He enjoyed playing guitar, watching sports (Go Raiders, Go A’s, Go Ducks), and traveling with his family.
He was a foodie that was always on the hunt for the next great meal. He spent his early 20’s on the L.A. punk scene playing bass guitar in a band called The Gears. His love of music ran deep.
Survivors include his wife of 34 years, Susan; daughter, Ashley; son, Jeffrey and daughter-in-law Summer; his father and stepmother, Eugene and Barbara; mother, Marian; and brother, Mark.
