A true worker in the Lord's vineyard has completed his assigned task. He has been called home to the Lord and greeted by millions and millions of unborn babies who were murdered in the womb. With them he will share eternal life in the presence of the Lord GOD! He never gave LIP SERVICE, BUT ALWAYS ACTED IN THE TRUTH OF GOD,S WORD. A wonderful example of faithfulness to God's WORD. He was inspiring and dauntless as a street preacher for the lord. He will be missed. Deacon Daly

Prolife Anderson was brilliant and devoted. He knew that the enemies of life wanted to operate without any evidence of their savagery. It was Prolife in the early 1980's (then Andy Anderson) who created his own visual display to confront the killers and the public.
There is no doubt that he changed many minds and saved many lives. Truly, a man of such incredible deeds and exceptional holiness must be recognized as a modern saint.

I am truly sorry to hear of Andy's passing. He was a great friend of my father, Dr. John H. deTar while in Reno and together they defended the unborn with every ounce of their being. Andy is a real hero and true soldier of Christ. He will be missed by our family.
