Anderson, Joseph "Joey" of St. Peter, MN passed away on June 26, 2024 after a long battle with brain cancer. Born in Minneapolis, MN, Joey moved with his family to St. Peter where he graduated from high school in 1991. An avid supporter of all things environmental, Joey earned a bachelor's degree from Gustavus Adolphus College ('95) in Environmental Studies. However, his lifelong creativity led him to Bemidji State University where he earned a second bachelor's degree in Design Technology/Model Design ('98). Joey will long be remembered for the bright light that he was. His warm smile, infectious sense of humor, and boundless creativity left a huge imprint on his vast group of friends, coworkers, and family. Joey was preceded in death by his grandparents, Andrew and Irene Anderson of Cokato and William and Fran Peterson of St. Louis Park, his aunt and uncle, Audree (Anderson) and Bill LeCompte of St. Peter, and his uncle, Dennis Peterson of Ames, IA. He is survived by his parents Mark and Frani Anderson and sister Lindsey (Eric) Carlson, all of St. Peter. A memorial service will be set at a later date. In lieu of flowers/gifts, please plant a tree near your home, support an environmental cause near you, or donate to your local animal shelter.
