July 21, 1920 — May 14, 2017

Grace E. Anderson, 96, of Moorhead, MN, died Sunday, May 14, 2017, at Eventide on Eighth in Moorhead.
Grace was born July 21, 1920, near Rollag, MN, to Emil and Gina Landmark. She grew up and attended school in Bagley, MN. On July 31, 1939, she married Hugo Anderson. Together they made their home in Moorhead until retiring to Lake Ida. Grace moved back to Moorhead in 1992 and later into Eventide Linden Tree Circle apartments in 2010. Over the years, Grace enjoyed cooking, especially Lefse and doughnuts. She also enjoyed quilting and needlework; dancing on Saturday nights and when unable to dance herself she enjoyed watching “Polka Spotlight” on TV. Above all Grace loved spending time with her family. She will be dearly missed.
