Noel Dwight Anderson died of natural causes in his home in Lincoln, Montana on November 29, 2016.
Noel was born to George and Dorothy Anderson on December 18, 1960. He attended grade school in Lincoln and High School in Augusta. After High School, Noel attended the Helena Vo-Tech for mechanics training. He married Tanya Leak and they had two children, Derek and Holly. Derek preceded Noel in death. Noel and Tanya’s marriage ended in divorce.
Noel later married Michele Gallo, which also ended in divorce. His life took him to Alaska for work, and also California. He was always a good worker and known to be one of the best machinery operators around. Both in the woods and on contracting jobs, Noel was an asset when it came to machinery!
Noel excelled at sports in High School and fell in love with fast-pitch softball and continued to pitch well into his 40’s. A lifetime resident of Lincoln, Montana, he was known for walking miles on the Blackfoot River and being a friend to all.
Noel is preceded in death by his father George Anderson, brother Neal Anderson, and son Derek Anderson. He is survived by his daughter Holly Anderson, mother Dorothy Anderson, brother Brent Anderson and two sisters-Nyleen Freeman of Oregon and Shona Anderson of Lincoln.
