Mary Patricia "Pat" Anderson of Appleton City, Missouri (formerly of Archie, Missouri) passed peacefully at her home into the arms of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on December 16, 2009 at her home surrounded by family.
Pat was born in Butler, Missouri. She attended High School in Montrose, Missouri.
Pat was a homemaker and occasionally worked outside of the home. She was an amazing person always putting others ahead of herself. She would go out of her way to offer assistance to those in need. Pat never knew a stranger and always had an extra place at her table for anyone who stopped by. She was an awesome cook and could fry "anything". Pat never asked for or needed anything fancy and was happy with whatever she had. It was not unusual to see her at garage sales or auctions buying treasures. She was the epitome of "country girl" to all who knew her. Pat loved Elvis and had an enormous collection of rare Elvis memorabilia. She was thrilled to have made two trips to "Graceland". Her sense of humor and ever positive demeanor was a role model to family and friends. Even to the end and through her terrible pain, when asked "How are you?", she would smile that beautiful smile that was only hers and answer "I'm fine!". She was dearly loved by all who knew her and leaves this world with a huge void.
Pat joined the Church of God Holiness in Appleton City and was baptized in 2008 by Pastor John Scofield. We can only imagine Pat's joy as she is dancing barefoot and is surrounded by His glory and hears the sweetest sound; voices of Angels, she is finally home.
She is survived by her husband of 42 years, Charles L. Anderson, Sr; two daughters, Angela J. Leismeister and Kelly A. Borgman of Harrisonville Missouri; one son Charles L. Anderson, Jr. and wife Dawn of Archie Missouri; four grandchildren, Clay, Hailey and Cody Anderson and Dalton Garrett Borgman; two brothers, Cliff Miller, Jr. and Patty of Napa, California and Bobby Dale Miller and wife Debbie of Collins, Missouri; two sisters, Chris Souza and husband Ron of Appleton City, Missouri and Elaine Moore and husband Mike of Urich, Missouri; her father, Clifford Miller, Sr. and wife Coralee of Rockville, Missouri; a brother-in-law Jr. Anderson and wife Jean of Urich, Missouri; a sister-in-law Doris Ingham of Urich, Missouri; and dearest friend Barbara Moore, Harrisonville, Missouri.
Preceding her in death were her mother, Dorothy Mae Miller (2005), her sister Judith Ann Miller (1961), her son-in-law James G. Borgman (2008), brothers-in-law, Ernest Bearce and Robert E. Anderson, and dear friend, Edsol D. Moore (2005).
