Stanley Malan Anderson, 95, of Pullman, WA passed away January 15, 2023 at Regency of Pullman Assisted Living.  Stanley was born April 28, 1927 in Salt Lake City, UT to Stanley & Beatrice (Taylor) Anderson.  The family moved to Merrill, OR to farm where he spent the days of his youth growing up and attending school.  During WWII he joined the US Navy in 1945.  After basic training in Gulfport, MS, he was stationed in San Diego, CA where he served on the USS Toucan (mine sweeper) in the Asiac Pacific, sweeping for mines planted in the seas and witnessing the after effects of the atomic bombs.  In 1946 Stanley was honorably discharged following the death of his father, so he could return home to assist his family. In 1947 he obtained his pilot's license in Banning, CA. Stanley married in 1951, moving to the Columbia Basin area of Washington where he farmed and raised his family.  While farming was a constant, obtaining a higher education was important.  He sold his farm and received his BA in agriculture from WSU in 1967.  Stanley moved to California and cattle ranched for 12 years until a drought in 1976/77, at which time he took a position as bank VP in Offerle, KS, spending many years approving farm loans.  Continuing his farming interests, Stanley moved to southern Russia, Rostov Region, where for 3 years, when communism was falling, he taught farmers and bankers the lending process.  He returned to the USA to retire and spent many years in Nezperce, ID.  Stanley enjoyed hunting, fishing, doing volunteer work and again working with farmers during the planting and harvesting seasons. In 2011 Stanley moved back to Pullman, WA where he made his home at Regency Assisted Living.  He is survived by his children Rhonda Jean Anderson, Stanley Victor Anderson, Zoe Ann Anderson and Guy Mark Anderson; 8 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren.  No public services are planned, and arrangements have been entrusted to Corbeill Funeral Home of Pullman, WA.
