Lynn Allen Anderson was born July 23, 1972 to Arnold and Donna (Namken) Anderson. He was the youngest of 7 children. He grew up on the family farm near Hayti and called it home till his passing day. Lynn graduated from Hamlin High School in 1990 and continued his education at Lake Area Technical Institute in the area of Ag. He continued to work in the Ag industry including Hayti Farmers Elevator, Westcon in Milbank, Scotts Air Ag, Lake Mary Elevator Construction, for his friend Ron Holiday and most recently P3 Electric.

Lynn loved to fish and do his “chores” of feeding his squirrels at his favorite place, the farm. He enjoyed attending auctions and finding antiques, playing cards and providing many laughs for those around him. Lynn was a true people person and could talk the ear off of anyone. Family and friends were his world, especially his daughter Justine.

Lynn is survived by his daughter, Justine Anderson of Brookings; his mother, Donna Anderson of Watertown; his siblings, Arline (Leon) Johnson of Bryant, Gary (Serena) Anderson of Beresford, James (Diane) Anderson of Hayti, Mary Ellen Johnson (Bob Sour) of Hazel, Kimberly (Curtis) Hlavacek of Watertown, and MarJoan (Bret) Buck of Bryant; special friend Christy Anderson of Sioux Falls and step-children Amanda (Ricky) Raml and Elora LaBarr; 16 nieces and nephews and 26 great nieces and nephews.

He is preceded in death by his father, Arnold Anderson, beloved friend Chuck Kasten and infant niece Teresa Anderson.

Lynn’s last wishes were to have his friends and family celebrate his life after his passing and to “have one for him." He will be greatly missed by all that crossed his path.
