ANDERSON,
Gary “GA”
(Age 69)

Gary was born March 13, 1943 and attended Cheney High School.
He was a lifelong resident of Cheney, owning and operating his business, Gary Anderson Sand & Gravel.
He had many large contracts, including Fairchild AFB for 30 years, and the State of Washington.
Gary enjoyed being a Dad, watching his son Justin growing up playing sports, and teaching him the business and how to operate equipment, following in his footprints.
Gary was a gambler, whether it be his trips to Reno, his race horse Ruthless Ruler, or the pull tabs at the American Legion.
He was always ready for chance.

Gary was preceded in death by his son, Shane Spolanski, father Del Anderson, and mother Margaret Dare.
