Anderson and Sons Mortuary proudly serves all of Utah, with full service facilities in American Fork, Highland, and Utah County!

Emil Anderson, a Danish convert to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was a carpenter when he arrived in the United States. He was called upon by the community to furnish a casket and later helped with the funeral needs of the community. He started with this simple carpenter's shop and did most of his work in the deceased's home.
