Carl R. Anderson, 71, of Darlington Township, passed away on Wednesday, September 15, 2021 at his home.
Born on July 30, 1950 in Enon Valley, he was the son of the late Ralph G. and Gladys V. (Duncan) Anderson.
Carl attended Greenbrier Military School, later attending Penn State University to obtain his degree in forestry. He then went on to receive a teaching degree from Geneva College. Carl taught history and science for Blackhawk School District for 32 years. He was also the assistant basketball coach with John Miller in the 80s, moving onto the 7th grade team for a total of 16 strong coaching years. Following his retirement, Carl formed the Blackhawk Retired Teachers’ Dinner Club, and was an active volunteer for the Lion Listeners with Blackhawk Intermediate School. Carl loved sports of all kinds, particularly basketball and cycling, and was a gifted woodworker, a civil war history buff, and a proud lifelong resident of the Blackhawk Community.
He is survived by his wife, Margee L. (Matthews) Anderson, through a relationship that began at Northwestern High School and endured through college, 47 years of marriage, and five different houses. Preceded in death by his oldest brother Thomas Anderson, Carl is also survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Abby (Sean) Sheffler; his brothers, Keith Anderson and Clair (Barbara) Anderson; grandchildren, Cooper Thomas and Elena Anne Sheffler; nieces and nephews, Kate, Duncan, Curt, and Ryan; relatives and special friends, Julie and Jan Jumet, Todd Beatty, Pat Lindner, Kenny Kemp, as well as the Haffey Family.
