Brett Warren Anderson, 65 of Nevada, passed away at his home surrounded by his loving family on Sunday, March 3, 2024.

Brett was born May 18th, 1958, in Nevada, IA the son of Marley and Lola (Tjelmeland) Anderson. After graduating from Nevada High School in 1976, Brett began farming alongside his dad, then in most recent years with his son. He also welded for Sorem Manufacturing in Nevada for many years.

Brett was a member of Memorial Lutheran Church in Nevada. He was very passionate about farming and could often be found driving around the countryside checking on the crops and keeping up on the weather forecast. He enjoyed watching the Iowa State Cyclones and the Iowa Hawkeyes. Brett was a simple man, who would do anything for anyone. More than anything, Brett loved his family and spending time with them.

Brett is survived by his children, Nicole Slater of Denver, IA, Jessica Anderson of Ankeny, IA, and Garrett (Michelle) Anderson of Huxley, IA; his grandchildren, Nolan, and Kellen Slater and Londyn, Emersyn, and Blakelyn Anderson; his sisters, Rhonda (Dale) Thompson, Shelley Ludeman, Robin (Jack) Robertson, and Signa (Mark) Morgan; and his brother, Bryce (Amy) Anderson; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; and his brother-in-law, LaVern Ludeman.
