Bridger, Janalee, and KennaDee Anderson were called home on Monday, July 24, 2006 after a tragic automobile accident in Daniels Canyon while returning from a fun family gathering. Bridger was born March 3, 1983 in Provo to Gaylon and Janeen Sorensen Anderson. Janalee was born January 17, 1983 in American Fork to Kraig and Sandra Turner Robinson. KennaDee was born May 9, 2005 in American Fork to her loving parents. The family was expecting the second joy of their life in the spring. Janalee and Bridger grew up in Pleasant Grove and graduated from Pleasant Grove High School in 2001. They became sweethearts in junior high school and after graduation attended Snow College together. Janalee eagerly awaited Bridger's return from his mission to Brazil (Belo Horizonte East) and were later married on June 3, 2004 in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. Bridger played football and baseball for Pleasant Grove High and continued playing football at Snow College. He was an avid skier and outdoorsman and enjoyed running rivers with his father, brothers, and sister. His most important passion in life was for family. Bridger was a friend to everyone and his smile and personality will be greatly missed. Janalee was active in high school on the Spirit Team and played softball. She graduated Cum Laude from UVSC in Elementary Education and was recently hired to teach pre-school at Lehi Legacy Center to create the opportunity to spend more time with KennaDee. Janalee was a goal oriented individual whose greatest accomplishment was being eternally married and a loving wife and mother. She had many talents. Every gift given was heartfelt and most times handmade. She enjoyed crafting with her best friend, her mother "first my mother, always my friend". KennaDee was their Angel sent from Heaven. Jana's journal read, " KennaDee, when I look in your big blue eyes, I see Heaven." She was a Daddy's Girl and her favorite place to be was in his arms with Duckie. Bridger is survived by his parents: Gaylon and Janeen Anderson, Pleasant Grove; siblings: Cody (Amy), Jimmie (Audrey), and Lacey (Jared) Silverio and grandparents, James and Gloria Sorensen. Janalee is survived by her parents: father, Kraig Robinson, Lehi; and mother, Sandra Robinson, Pleasant Grove; siblings: Jennifer (Glen) Thomas, Justin (Amy), Jason (Emily), Jared (Raelyn); grandmother, Nelda Robinson and many loving nieces and nephews. Funeral services will be held Saturday, July 29, 2006 at 11:00 a.m. in the Manila Stake Center, 950 East 850 North, American Fork (just north of the Mt. Timpanogos Temple). Friends may call Friday evening from 6-8 p.m. at Olpin Family Mortuary, 494 South 300 East, Pleasant Grove and at the church on Saturday one hour prior to services. Interment will be in the Pleasant Grove City Cemetery. Contributions to a trust fund can be made at any Zions Bank Branch or Western Community Bank in the name of the Andersons.
