Carrol was born on December 13,1942 in Enid, Oklahoma to Eldon and Lillie Dale Broomfield. She attended school at Cimarron Valley School and then graduated from Ames Public Schools.
Carrol met the love of her life and married Donald Grey Anderson from Ringwood on May 24, 1960, in Ames, Oklahoma. They have celebrated 66 years of marriage and too that union was born three children, Monte, Dedria and Cody.
Immediately following their wedding they joined a harvest crew that cut wheat from Oklahoma as far as they could go north. Then after returning back to Ringwood they headed to Amarillo, Texas where Monte was born. While in Amarillo, Carrol worked for the American Quarter Horse Association.
They settled back in the Enid area where she was employed at Vance Air Force Base. Then in 1972 Don and Carrol established their home in Ringwood where they have resided for 54 years. During that time Carrol worked along side Don at Watonga Livestock, A2 Cattle Company, Enid Livestock and Stockman’s Commission Firm at the Oklahoma National Stock Yards. Carrol officially Retired in 2012 and continued to take care of books for Anderson Farms.
Carrol had a life full of ministry beginning in the late 1970’s with holding bible studies and ministry meetings in her home. Leading Women’s Aglow and worship at many ministry events in the area through the 1980’s. She dedicated her life and heart to fulfill the mission of the local church at Faith Center by launching prayer, women’s and children’s ministry. She was known by all as “Two Gun Annie”. Carrol was responsible for helping launch Provision Thrift Outreach that is currently preparing to move into a 8,000 square feet facility providing aid to local and international needs. For 25 years was a ministry leader on staff until she transferred her leadership to the next generation.
Carrol was steadfast in her faith, the Word of God, prayer and intercession. A testimony of her prayer life over and over again, was this, “When Annie Pray’s, Heaven Moves!” When family saw Annie in her home, the Bible was not far away from her. She lived her life as close to the Lord as possible. It was always her desire to see people and family come to know Jesus and make heaven crowded.
Carrol demonstrated her love for her family in every way possible. She would prepare Sunday meals for the family to gather after church. When they were able, for years, her and Don would provide a week of vacation for the family, with the special favorite food that everyone liked. She gave, by demonstrating a servants heart, passionate faith and unconditional love for those who knew her.
Proverbs describes a “Virtuous” woman and that is exactly who Carrol Anderson is and will be forever remember. Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies. The heart of her husband safely trusts her; So he will have no lack of gain. She does him good and not evil All the days of her life. She girds herself with strength, And strengthens her arms. She extends her hand to the poor, Yes, she reaches out her hands to the needy. Strength and honor are her clothing; She shall rejoice in time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness. She watches over the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her: “Many daughters have done well, But you excel them all. Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, And let her own works praise her in the gates. (Proverbs 31:1 - 31 NKJ)
