Henry M. Anderson, 3 year old son of Darrin and Sarah (Wilson) Anderson, died Monday, November 2, 2009, after a brief illness at Children's Hospital in Milwaukee. Born on June 23, 2006 in Oshkosh, Henry enjoyed almost daily visits to the Menominee Park Zoo. There, he would watch the feeding and care given to the various animals. Henry loved to put together a puzzle of the United States with pictures of animals on each state. Henry knew where each state went, named the animal, and then imitated it. Reading gave much pleasure to Henry, such as "If You Give a Moose a Muffin," and making up stories where Henry would incorporate himself in the story. He was a Star Wars fan with Mickey Mouse a close second.
Left to cherish Henry's memory are his loving parents, "Mum" and "Pa"; a one year old brother, Jack; grandparents, Patti Wilson of Oshkosh; Albert and Dorothy Anderson of Princeton, Illinois; great-grandmother, Wilma Wilson of Oshkosh; numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins; a godmother, Julie Anderson; and godfather, Ryan Anderson. Proceeding Henry in death is his great grandfather, Eugene Wilson; great-great grandparents, Henry Kromm Sr. (who was Henry's namesake) and Bessie Kromm; and an uncle, Alan Anderson.
