Sarabeth Anderson Siddall died in Midland, TX on October 17, 2005 at Manor Park, Inc. which had been her residence for the past seven years. Sarabeth would have been 88 years old on October 27. Sarabeth, the youngest of three children, was born in EI Paso, TX to James David Anderson and Pearl Morris Anderson.

She was preceded in death by her beloved brothers and their wives, Darby Anderson and wife, Zoe Louise (Babe), and Bill Anderson and wife, Lena. Sarabeth is survived by nieces, Mary Anderson Johnson and husband, Paul, of Albuquerque, NM and Gigi Anderson Linne and husband, Aubrey, of Midland, TX; and by great-nieces, Nancy Underwood and husband, Wes, of Wheaton, IL, Kelly Owen and husband, Steve, of Midland, TX, and Julie Lamb and husband, John, of Grosse Pointe, MI; and by great-nephews, Paul Anderson Johnson and wife, Sepi, of Shanghai, China and Kent Douglas Carlisle and wife, Heather, of Keller, TX; and by 13 great-great-nieces and -nephews. She is also survived by many caring friends, the kind Home Hospice workers, and her loving caretakers at Mabee Healthcare Center some of whom were her very best friends in recent years. Our dearest little "Aunt Sara" will be missed by all of us, but will live in our hearts and memories when we hear the call of a bird or the splash of the surf on a beach.
