Kit was a shining light in the Ukulele Club and the Hawaiian Serenaders Group, here at Laguna Woods Village. We enjoyed her
cheerfulness and her teaching and ukulele playing skills.

I think about Kit from time to time...What a great friend she was...A wonderful person...My getting to know her was through our Uke Group in Laguna Woods Village. She loved Hawaiian music especially, I would say, and she often did hula dances as group strummed their ukeleles!

Kit Anderson was one of the finest women I have ever met. I admired her cheerful personality and her unending desire to learn. She was a good and dear friend and I am so glad that I got to know her.

Kit Anderson was one of the most delightful people I have ever met. She was full of life and energy and was an inspiration to me.Even though I had not seen Kit in several years, she always kept in touch at Christmas and recorded the many activities in which she was involved. She was a treasure.

Thank you Kit. You were a light in my life though I knew you such a short time. We shared a passion for the music and history of the South Pacific that made our ukulele sessions so alive. I miss you.

Kit and I first met via email while doing research on our Williamson genealogy. It wasn't long after that we met in person and shared some stories. She was a wonderful lady.

From Phyllis Feemster: Although I only had the pleasure of being with Kit a few times, I found her very friendly - one who puts one at ease immediately. She was very talented, creative, and artistic.

Kit and my wife, Karen, had a long close relationship. Hawaiian music and dance brought Kit to our house every week for Hawaiian dancing.  Kit was a sweet lady but also very determined.

A very special lady who brought happiness to many people.Our best wishes to your family at this sad time from Herbie and Suann Dayal(nee Pascall) London UK

From Craig and Carol Charlton: Kit worked faithfully for many years as the Uke Club Librarian, printing song books for members.
I will greatly miss her cheerfulness, fine character, and friendship.

From Craig and Carol Charlton: My association with Kit was in the Laguna Woods Village Ukulele Club. She was always pleasant and helpful in giving lessons to fledgling ukulele students in her home.

She was a very good person and a true lady. You could sense goodness in her at the first glance. I hope her energy lives on in the nature she loved.

My husband and I had the unique pleasure of spending time with Kit and her family for the past few years. She was a remarkable lady whom I admired and respected in so many ways. I will miss her.

A kind and loving lady who gave much joy to Eric in their time together. Fondest memories of Kit who holds a special place in our hearts.

Kit was a lovely person who was always helping others. She always seemed very calm and poised. Our Uke Club and Hawaiian Serenaders just aren't the same without her.

I haven't been around much in the last two years. But I do remember what a spark Kit added to the club. It will be an honor to play at her "Celebration of Life".

Kit was such a great friend. She and Barbara and I went on a Ukulele cruise and she was a gas. My husband and I took walks with her and had trouble keeping up! I'll miss you, Kit.

"We are really going to miss seeing Kit in Laguna Woods Village. She was a part of so many activities here...I am grateful to the Lord for her many years with us...Kit was a wonderful friend! 

Wonderful to keep on learning about a favourite American cousin. I loved her lively mind and concern for family history.

I hope others will add remembrances and photos of Kit, who brought so much joy and love of life to us all. She was a beautiful person and a wonderful mother. I miss her very much.

Everyone who met Mom was struck by her sweetness, her love of people, her embrace of those from different backgrounds and cultures, and her many hobbies and interests. Ave atque vale, Mom. I miss you.

Here's our favourite family hymn When the Mists Have Rolled Away. Not a soulful performance, sorry!

Re music:
I decided not to use the site's available background music for now. I'll provide links to some appropriate music in other candles.
