Honoring Garry Anderson 1945-2020

Had the opportunity to represent our family at the Garry Anderson Wrestling Invitational Tournament today at Edgewood High School. So appreciative of those who supported naming a tournament after Coach. It means a lot to our family and I know many in the community. His legacy will live on through this program and through all of us! Always missing Coach Anderson! Love, Your Favorite Daughter-in-law/Assistant Coach Jo

Coach Anderson was officially inducted into the Monroe Co Hall of Fame on Friday night surrounded by a most prestigious class of athletes, contributors and coaches. Karen Anderson (Mrs. Coach) asked Paul to accept the award and speak on the family's behalf. Wanted to share his speech with all of our friends and family who have supported this page. Feel free to share.

All Followers: You joined this page 4 years ago with kindness to support and follow the memorial thoughts, comments, and photos in honor of Coach Garry Anderson. We are thrilled to share with you that he has been chosen as an inductee to the Monroe County Sports Hall of Fame on July 19th beginning at 5:00 pm – Meet & Greet (open to the public) - then 6:00pm – Reception – Grand Ball Room - 6:45pm – Banquet Buffet - 7:30pm – Awards Program.
We would LOVE to see many of you that evening to come and share your memories and well wishes with Garry's wife Karen and family that will be there representing him that evening. Due to Co--vid--we were never able to hold an actual service or memorial for him, and this has been a surprise blessing and opportunity for those coached by him or loved by him or his family to come and celebrate together while supporting other young athletes both past and present which was a HUGE mission of Coach Anderson's. Please comment or message if you will plan on attending with us! Thank you in advance! The Anderson Family
