Estelle H Anderson

Estelle Anderson passed away quietly on July 10, 2026, two days shy of her 82nd birthday. She was preceded in death by her husband, Cliff Anderson, and is survived by her daughter, Nikki Rose, son, Tony Berrios and step-son, Mark Anderson; her sisters, Wendy Gardner and Gail Josephson; and her brother, Mark Josephson.

Estelle touched the lives of many with her sense of humor, warmth, creativity, and endless curiosity. An avid animal lover, she pursued that passion working at The Living Desert in Palm Desert and rescuing dogs from shelters. A generous friend with an uncanny gift for connecting with people, she moved through life building relationships that lasted. Her years were a rich and diverse tapestry, woven through with love and highlights she never took for granted — she was deeply grateful for the life she lived.

She cherished her home in the Desert Hot Springs community of Quail Valley, and found joy in nature, her family, her friends, and the community around her.

Though Estelle is gone, she will live on in our hearts forever.
