Charles Nixon Anderson

Charles Nixon Anderson (Pa) was born March 19, 1943 to parents William (Billy) and Mittie Anderson. He passed quietly on May 5th, 2025 surrounded by family. He was a jack of all trades with careers as a Plumber, a Master Sewing Machine Mechanic and then running his own Heating & Air business later in life. He was known to be able to fix anything and often the first call of many friends and family when something needed fixing. Pa was famous for his BBQ and chocolate cake and enjoyed cooking and baking for his family. He spent a big part of his life and retirement fishing and creating a large collection of “fish stories” that he and Donnie Wiggs enjoyed sharing and making others laugh.
