Born in Yuma, Arizona in 1928, he arrived in the foothills of North Carolina as a young child in 1932. He frequently reminisced about the cross-country journey with his siblings, parents, and all their possessions in their car. After several years in North Carolina, his family moved to North Greenville area where he spent the rest of his life. Bob met his wife, Frances, at Mountain View High School, where he graduated. She recalls the first time she saw him, he was showing off in his car in the crossroads near the school. They spent 72 loving years together, traveling the world, raising their children, and enjoying scenic drives around the community in his antique cars. Bob was an active member of Camp Creek Baptist Church for over 70 years where he served as Deacon, Sunday school teacher, and several other leadership roles. He was known at the church as a faithful member and could always be counted on to support the church and congregation in any way needed – all anyone had to do was look to the back pew where he always sat. He retired from Flour (Daniel Construction Company) after almost 40 years as a Construction Manager, overseeing large scale projects across the globe and US in places like Australia, Puerto Rico, and Canada. His master attention to detail made him a true craftsman that shaped his career and kept him sharp even until the end of his life. In retirement, he spent time enjoying many hobbies including golfing, restoring his antique cars, serving on many community projects, and running his sawmill to support his woodworking passions. He was often immersed in projects from major home construction to making intricate wooden objects like furniture, puzzles, toy chests, cars, and ducks. Bob will be remembered for always advocating for what was right, his kindness and compassion, ability to solve even the most difficult situations with sound advice, and devotion to his family and community. He is survived by his wife Frances Ann Beacham Anderson; one son: Robert L. Anderson, Jr. (Ruth); two daughters: Ella Dunlap (Neal) and Nina Lovett; two brothers: Gary Anderson (Susan) and George Anderson (Grace); one sister: Marthalyn Veal; six grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren. He was predeceased by his parents, Henry Sherman and Cora Mae Hargrove Anderson; four brothers: Sherman Anderson, Lindsay Anderson, Jack Anderson, and Monroe Anderson; four sisters: June Henson, Eunice Mathis, Ann Ward, and Beth Burgess; and one great grandson. Burial in Cox Chapel Baptist Church Cemetery.
