Darryl Albert Anderson, 87, of Ft. Morgan, CO, died Friday, January 2, 2015 at Valley View Villa in Ft. Morgan. Darryl was born on November 27, 1927 in Haxtun, CO to Albert and Ruth (Young) Anderson.
Darryl grew up in the Fairfield Community on a farm south of Sedgwick. He attended schools in Fairfield and Haxtun, graduating from Haxtun High School. He enlisted in the US Army during the Korean War (1951-1953) and was stationed in Germany.

On March 9, 1956, he married Wilma Ione Houser and together they farmed outside of Haxtun for three years. They moved to Loveland, CO in 1959, where he and Wilma raised their 4 children. He was a USPS letter carrier for 31 years, retiring in 1990, a part time auto mechanic, and in his "retirement" a Walmart clerk. Darryl was a faithful member of the Loveland Church of the Nazarene; he served the church in multiple leadership and service roles. Wilma died in 2002 after nearly 46 years of marriage.

In 2004, Darryl moved to Ft. Morgan, became the companion of Alene Johnson and a member of the Ft. Morgan Church of the Nazarene, which warmly embraced him. In 2012 he was thrilled to be included in an Honor Flight to Washington DC, acknowledging his military service.

Darryl is survived by two daughters, Garnet Anderson (David Carrell) of Seattle, WA and Melanie Bacon (John) of Olathe, KS; two sons, Quentin Anderson (Beth) of Creve Coeur, MO and Arlen Anderson (Tina) of Gilbert, AZ; sister, Sylvia Bogenhagen; brother, Vayle Anderson; seven grandchildren; two great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.
