Mrs. Blanche B. Anderson was born on January 6, 1932 in Carthage, NC, but spent most of her life in Winston Salem, NC. An angel was dispatched on Monday, February 25, 2013 and called the lady known as "Mom" to many to her final resting place after a long battle with her health.

She retired from Wake Forest University, and was then employed by Hanes Brand until her health declined. There were no strangers in her live because she would love and nurture everyone that she met.

She was preceded in death by her husband, James Anderson; her parents, Rosa and Willis Morrison; five brothers and two sisters.
