In Loving Memory of Wallace Henry Anderson Sr.

────────────────────────────────────────

Wallace Henry Anderson Sr. passed away peacefully on August 28, 2025, in Memphis, Tennessee, the city where he was born on January 22, 1941. He was 84 years old. A lifelong resident of Memphis, Wallace’s journey through life was marked by unwavering faith, quiet strength, and a deep devotion to his family. In his later years, his belief in the power of prayer became a guiding force—not only for himself but for those around him. He leaned on his faith during both trials and triumphs, offering gentle reminders to trust in something greater than ourselves. His words were often laced with wisdom and calm reassurance, reflecting a life lived with patience, kindness, and understanding.

Wallace’s legacy is most vividly reflected in the lives of his children: Wallace Anderson Jr., Eric Dewayne Anderson, Porsha Anderson, and Lashanda Anderson. To them, he was more than a father—he was a teacher of values, a source of strength, and a steady presence whose love never wavered. He also leaves behind a host of grandchildren who carry forward his spirit and lessons; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins who were touched by his warmth and guidance.

Those who knew Wallace remember him not just for what he said but for how he lived—with humility, compassion, and an unshakable sense of purpose rooted in faith. He taught those around him that true belief is shown through action: standing together in unity, extending kindness without expectation, and living each day with integrity.

Though Wallace Henry Anderson Sr. is no longer with us in body, his spirit endures—in every act of love shared among his family and in every quiet moment when faith lights the way forward. May his memory bring comfort to all who knew him and serve as a lasting reminder of the power of love grounded in belief.
