NAMPA – Elaine Crandall Anderson, an 84-year-old resident of Nampa (formerly of Burley), passed away peacefully Friday, June 30, 2023.

Elaine was born September 1, 1938, in Rupert, Idaho, to Vernon Crandall and Thelma Norton. She grew up in Burley with her three brothers. Elaine graduated from Burley High School where she met her husband, Lloyd DeWayne Anderson, in band class. Afterwards, she graduated from the Stevens’ Henager School of Business in Salt Lake City.

Elaine and DeWayne were married August 1, 1958, in the Idaho Falls temple. During their marriage, the Andersons were fortunate to travel and raise their family all over the country and Japan. The family returned to the Burley area in 1980, after DeWayne retired from the military. Elaine worked at a local CPA firm for 35 years until her retirement. She enjoyed traveling, reading, and camping with her family.

Elaine was preceded in death by her husband, DeWayne; and brothers, Don Crandall and Thomas Crandall. She is survived by her brother, Gary (Debbie) Crandall; her children, Connie (Bruce) Lowder, Michael (Robin) Anderson, and Shauna (David) Henderson; ten grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.

Elaine was a beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Although she will be greatly missed, the family is grateful that she can finally be reunited with DeWayne.

The funeral will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, July 8, at Rasmussen-Wilson Funeral Home, 1350 E. 16th St., in Burley, where family and friends will be received one hour prior the service. Burial will follow at Pleasant View Cemetery, in Burley.

RIP Ma’am. Go give your sweetheart a hug and a kiss. You haven’t seen each other for almost 20 years. I still remember riding back with you to Nebraska on the bus when I was four years old.
