Obituary For Willliam Earl Anderson

William Earl Anderson was truly a phenomenal man,a
friend, a pastor, a teacher, a protector, and a father to those who needed one. His zeal for Christ never wavered, and the way he lived his faith spoke louder
than any sermon he ever preached. His love for frogs was always funny, his childhood stories were captivating, and his presence alone brought comfort and
strength.
He touched so many lives, including mine. I am deeply grateful to have crossed paths with a pastor who didn't
just teach the Word of God, but planted it patiently and faithfully into my life. That seed changed me.
Earl Anderson made everyone his family. May he now rest in our Father's home, surrounded by the eternal peace he so freely gave to others. His children are
truly blessed to have had a father who will never be forgotten. Especially his personal sacrifices only those around him would know. We all have our personal
stories and the adventures we all shared together, the ones that created everlasting bonds. I take my hat off to
someone much more than a preacher. To Earl Anderson, God has brought his son home, may he live in our hearts and mind forever and a day.

William Earl Anderson was 75 years old, born July 27, 1950, in Paris, Tennessee. His parents Williams Clifford Anderson and Louise Stallings Anderson. He was the second oldest of seven children.

He was married to the late Janice E. Dortch, to this union they were blessed with four children.

He was preceded in death by his siblings, Mildred Allen, Jimmy Anderson.

His legacy will continue in the hearts of his children; Jena (Joey) Johnson, Tawana (Kenny) Chavous, Rocky Anderson, Traci Anderson; six grandchildren, Emily (Landon) Redmon, Erin (Chris) Sorrell, Lauren (John) Sims, Marcus Chavous, Madelyn Chavous, Rayne Glanton; two great grandson, Royce Sorrell, and Rowen Redman; siblings, Mary L. Anderson Wright, Clifford (Lucy) Anderson, Rainey Anderson, Carl (Kim) Anderson. A host of nieces, nephews, church family, other relatives and loving friends.

I met Earl july 9th 1985 I was 16 years old I had just started going to south augusta on Oct 26 1996 I became a member. I was there for 40 years and a member for 26 years. My most memory of Earl was the day I found out my mom past away Earl was there when I got the news. I cried on his shoulder because he knew what it was like to loose a parent. Earl was more then just my minister he was like a father figure to me. Im going to miss him so much one of his favorite songs was ole dan tucker 😊 I know he is in heaven dancing with his wife jance.
