Mary Belle Anderson

August 26, 1941 – June 19, 2025

Mary Belle Anderson, 83, passed away peacefully on June 19th , 2025, surrounded by the love of her family.

Born in Joplin, Missouri, on August 26, 1941. With her family, Mary moved to California in 1946 and settled in the Sacramento area. She attended high school in North Sacramento and proudly graduated from Grant High School in 1959.

In 1960, Mary married Gary Forrest Mann and welcomed two sons, Ronald Curtis (Curt) and Christopher Forrest. Though their paths eventually went separate ways, Mary found love again with Robert Lee Anderson (Bob), whom she married on February 14th, 1965. Together, they had two more children, Mary Catharine (Cathy) and Craig Alan.

Mary’s journey through life took her across the country- from Missouri to California, Nebraska, Alaska, and back to California. A talented beautician, she worked both in salons and from home, building long lasting relationships with clients and friends. In her later years she loved traveling the country and making memories alongside her companion, John Dobrinski. She was also a dedicated member of Woodmen Life Chapter 339 and the Roseville Emblem Club, where she gave her time and heart to her community.

Mary is survived by her sons Curt (Carol) and Chris; her son-in-law Mike (Cathy); grandchildren Cristin (Devon), Taylar (Joey), and Bobby (Kayla); and her beloved great-grandchildren Lincoln, Weston, Lyanna, Barrett, Nyjah, and London.

She was a devoted Mother, cherished grandmother, and loyal friend. Mary will be deeply missed by all who knew her- especially her faithful companion, Molly girl.
