Marjorie Lou Andersen

January 1 1926 – September 25 2014

Born to Garner and Lola Steen of Vashon Island, WA January 1, 1926, Marjorie Lou

Andersen passed away peacefully September 25, 2014 at Virginia Mason Hospital, Seattle. She married Robert Andersen, her childhood friend and high school sweetheart in 1949. She was preceded in death by her loving husband

in 2001.

After graduating Vashon High School in 1944, Lou moved to Los Angeles CA to train and work as a nurse. She and Robert had three children born between 1950 and 1956 which they raised, first in West Seattle, then the suburbs of Chicago before settling on Mercer Island WA in 1965. She relocated to Bainbridge Island in 2007 to be near her daughter’s family and lived independently up to the time of her death.

Lou’s intelligent, compassionate and loving nature will be deeply missed by her family and all who knew her. She found her fulfillment and deepest satisfaction in and around her family. The love and affection expressed in her marriage to Bob was an inspiration and model to all her children. She was preceded in death by her brother Max. She is survived by her brother Gordon Steen, sister’s in-law Peg and Barbara Steen, daughter Jenny, sons David and Morgan, son in-law Mark, daughter’s in-law Barbara and Peg, grandchildren Ivy, Nolan, Sarah and Heather and six great grandchildren, Niya, Lola, David, Colin, Rileah and Felix.

Lou will be reunited with her beloved Bob at a graveside service on Saturday October 11, 2014 at 11:30 am at the Vashon Cemetery.
