Stanley Darrell Anderson, 82, of Pryor, passed from this life on Friday, May 21, 2021 at his home. He was born on July 20, 1938 in Lebanon, Missouri; the son of Stanley Anderson and Marie (Elam) Anderson. At the age of 15, Darrell started washing dishes at Thomas Restaurant and worked up to owning the restaurant in the early 80’s. Darrell was a very hard working, generous man, and retired in 2015. He also faithfully served our country in the United States Army Reserves. Darrell was a member of Cowboy Gatherin’ Church and enjoyed being a part of his church family. He had many hobbies, working at the restaurant, watching the grandkids show cattle and play sports, and taking them fishing. He was an avid OU sports fan, especially football and softball. Above all, he loved spending time with his family and friends and he will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.
