The Iron River Masonic lodge conducted the graveside ritual at the interment of David E. Anderson, 62, widely-known Upper Peninsula architect, in Stambaugh cemetery late yesterday afternoon.
Mr. Anderson died Thursday at 11:15 p.m. in St. Luke’s hospital at Marquette. He had been ill with a heart ailment for three months. For the past 19 years, he had resided in Marquette, having moved there in 1928 from Iron River where he had maintained offices in the Warshawsky building.
Mr. Anderson was the architect for many public and private structures in the west side district, including the Stambaugh city hall, Commercial bank of Stambaugh, Caspian bank, Gaastra school, and a number of residences.
BORN IN SWEDEN He was born April 26, 1885 in Sweden and came to Stambaugh as a child with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. A.P. Anderson, pioneer settlers of the city on the hill. The boy attended Stambaugh schools and went on to complete a course at the Chicago Architectural college. He was associated with William Smith in the Iron River office for some years prior to War I when Mr. Anderson opened his own office in the Warshawsky building. Only recently he had prepared plans for the proposed new Iron River township school bus fleet garage.
He was a member of the Iron River Masonic lodge No. 457 and of the old Lions club.
Surviving are his wife Blanche; four brothers, Dr. A.E. Anderson, Fresno, Calif., Oscar, Bates, and Joseph and August A. Anderson, Stambaugh. Funeral services were held early yesterday afternoon in Marquette, and the remains were brought here for burial.
