Anders Norman Lassey

was born May 19, 2005, to

Rod Lassey and Briana

(Johnson) Lassey, on the

day following his

mother’s birthday. Briana

never ceased to remind

Anders how she was in la-

bor on her birthday. He

grew up on the family

farm at Cartwright, ND.

He attended elementary

school at East Fairview,

and Fairview High

School. Anders was active

in Cub and Boy Scouts,

and was a member of the

track and cross-country

teams. Anders loved to

run, and broke several

school records.

Anders was musically

inclined and played saxo-

phone in grade school and

high school bands. He

also had a wonderful sing-

ing voice, and loved to

sing along to the radio

when on the road.

Anders had an ex-

uberant personality, al-

ways ready for adven-

tures, whether well

thought out or not. He

was a great tease, much to

the chagrin of his brothers

and sister. He enjoyed

epic airsoft battles with

his brothers and cousins,

and loved playing video

games with his brothers.

He was also quite an ac-

complished cook, making

perfect scallops at the age

of seven years old. He en-

joyed cooking recipes

from his collection of Gor-

don Ramsey cookbooks.

Anders enjoyed work-

ing on the farm, especially

when he got to drive trac-

tors. He was particularly

good with pets and lives-

tock. His dog, Mercer, was

always by his side, and

the family jokingly called

Mercer Anders’s brother.

They would play together

for hours.

Anders was always

headstrong and stubborn.

He knew what he wanted.

When asked if he wanted

a baby brother or a baby

sister, he “requested” a

baby sister, and Britt

didn’t disappoint. She

even looked like Anders,

and she was his ‘baby’.

The joke at church was

that the boys were

spoiled, whatever they

asked for, they got! He

was also an adoring and

playful big brother to his

baby brother Bjorn. Bjorn

would light up when

Anders walked in and im-

mediately go running to

him, wanting to play tag

or be flung around like

pizza dough. Anders was

very obliging and accom-

modating when it came to

Bjorn.

Anders passed away on

November 11, 2020. He

was preceded in death by

his great-grandma, Wanda

Johnson. Anders is sur-

vived by his parents, Rod-

ney Lassey and Briana

Villegas, step father Alex

Villegas, and his brothers

and sister, Christian,

Isaak, Britt, and Bjorn. He

is also survived by his

Granpa and Gramma,

Jerry and Judy Lassey,

and his Nana and Papa,

Ruth and Norman John-

son, and numerous aunts,

uncles, and cousins.
