Phyllis Marie (Peterson) Anderson was born on August 28,1927 in St. Paul,
Minnesota the second of three daughters to Philip G. Peterson and Florence
Marie (Leaf) Peterson. Phyllis grew up on the East Side of St. Paul attending
elementary school and graduated from Johnson High School. In 1949 she
graduated from the Univ. of Minnesota and then taught German and Art at
Minnehaha Academy. Phyllis returned to the U of M for an elementary teach-
ing certificate after which she taught at Farnsworth Elementary School until
she retired in 1977. Phyllis traveled extensively across the United States
generally towing a travel trailer. She was a multi-talented artist and became
an excellent wood carver, specializing in Swedish folklore and little people
called “Tomtegubbar.” Phyllis and Archie Anderson were married July 10,
1976. For awhile they entertained groups by displaying these carvings and
telling Scandinavian folk tales. They enjoyed several winters in Texas and
summers in Grand Marais where they stayed in the trailer. After Archie died,
Phyllis lived in their town house until August of 2004 when she moved into
a Lyngblomsten apartment. With the passage of time she required more
services, moving to the third floor and finally to the fourth floor.
