Lavonne, nicknamed Bonnie, spent countless hours in the kitchen cooking and baking for her family which she loved to do and excelled. Many of the ingredients came for their expansive gardens and orchard where all sorts of berries, fruits and vegetables grew under their care. But most loved by Lavonne were the flower beds which circled the house and the songbirds that she faithfully fed throughout the year. She knew them all by name and passed that knowledge on to her children. She enjoyed traveling with a special liking for the deserts of the southwest states. She had a gift to gab which lent well to her profession of waitressing for many years, and later as she sold tickets for the Ducks and other attractions in the Wisconsin Dells. She liked to be where the action was and would be the first out on the dance floor at every opportunity that came along. She loved people and served others doing hospice for a while and assisted handicap people on traveling tours by bus. She lived a very full life and had a strong faith in God.

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, July 27, 2024, at the Bethany Lutheran Church, 701 Grove Street, Mauston, Wisconsin, with visitation from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. followed by a brief service and a light meal and fellowship.

Carl Anderson was born in Madison, WI on May 30, 1957, to Charles R. and Patricia M. (Turner) Anderson. He married Mary Walter on November 14, 2020. Carl served in the United States Air Force between 1976-1980, working with the White House Communications staff in Washington DC. He traveled with White House staff to many places under two administrations. Carl had the honor of introducing the “President of the United States” on one occasion. He continued working on computer communication systems as a career for many years, moving to Minnesota, Illinois, and eventually back to Wisconsin.

Carl’s core was his Christian faith. He was raised attending church with his family and in the past few years became increasingly more confident displaying his faith. He faithfully attended all church services, was actively involved in men’s Bible studies, and helping in any way possible at his current church. Mornings would find him reading his daily devotions, drinking his tea with George sitting on his lap. Carl was a fun-loving man who shared in a lifetime of treasured memories with family and many friends. He had a soft spot for his cats, especially Herbie and George. There is an emptiness now in our hearts. Carl was a motorcycle enthusiast, having taken numerous road trips across the country with his Dad, uncle Earl, and cousin David. He covered over 300,000 miles. Of course, this included a few trips to Sturgis, South Dakota. In recent years, he and Mary would hit the road frequently on their cycles, riding several multi-state trips. Carl became an enthusiastic member of Castle Rock HOG chapter in Mauston. For all motorcycle enthusiasts, please consider riding your motorcycles to the services, to honor Carl.

Carl was an avid outdoorsman, hunting deer and turkey, and spending much time outdoors on his multi-acre homestead.
