Steve was born October 2, 1954, to James Louis and Ferne Stovall Anderson in Spur, Texas. Steve attended Floydada schools and proudly graduated in the FHS class of 1973. Steve always said that he had the best class Floydada ever had and remains close to his classmates. This class holds the record for advancing in football State playoffs, making quarter-final champions. He attended West Texas State University for a short period when he realized he only wanted to marry his high school sweetheart. Steve and Donna married on April 20, 1974, and from this union, they were blessed with two sons; Brady was born in 1977, and Todd was born in 1982. Steve’s lineman career started in 1974 at South Plains Electric Cooperative. He then had the opportunity to move back to Floydada and work at Lighthouse Electric Cooperative, where he retired after 35 years. Steve was known for his wit, joke telling, and for making people laugh. He loved cookouts with his family and being the selector of all music played. Steve never met a stranger and was known for his questions and conversations. Steve enjoyed coaching his son’s little league teams and working with them on their show animals.
Other than his sons, the light of his life was his five granddaughters, referred to as the” fab five.”
