Julianna Frances Anderson
February 8, 1933 — May 23, 2022
Our Loving and devoted Mother Julianna "Ski" Frances Anderson, Age 89, of 11 Appleby Street, Newport, RI, passed away at home on Monday, May 23, 2022, from complications relating to Alzheimer's Disease.
She was born on February 8, 1933, in Newport, RI. She was preceded in death by her spouse, David "Andy" Anderson, Jr. in 2008. Ski was the daughter of the late John Amado Monteiro Sr and Jennie P. Monteiro.
Ski and Andy met and were married in 1956. The introduction came by way of her beloved father. Ski and her late husband would share 55 years together and she always gave all her love and unwavering support. She served as an example to all of us of what a devoted wife and mother looks like.
Ski loved people, especially children. She enjoyed having family around her all the time. Friends and family would say the door was always open and you would always be greated with a smile and a hug. She enjoyed swimming, embroidery, watching wrestling, baking, especially her famous strawberry cake, Coke a Cola, and listening to music. She also enjoyed going shopping and hanging out with her sister-in-law Judy.
Ski lived a full life as an awesome mother, homemaker, caregiver, and worker in the hospitality industry as a housekeeper. Beginning her career at the YMCA located on Washington Square and then transferred to Howard Johnson's in Middletown, RI as the assistant supervisor in the housekeeping department taking early retirement to care for her husband at home after he had suffered a stroke.
Being a woman that couldn't sit still she decided while semi-retired to open an In-Home Daycare - Ma's Daycare. She would spend the next 20+ years taking care of many of Aquidneck Island's children. She was also loved by ALL their parents, they adored her as much as we did.
Before Ski was an adult herself she had taken on the role of a parent figure to her younger siblings and maintained that role once she entered adulthood. She was a highly regarded older sister that did not take any mess from anyone.
Ski was a loving and devoted mother of 7 children - Michael Monteiro (Jean) of Newport, RI, the late Robert Anderson, Nathaniel Anderson of Newport, RI, Jeffrey Anderson (Marie) of Middletown, RI, Cheryl Bryant of Charleston, SC, Toni Anderson Taylor (Earl) of Orlando, FL and Laura Anderson of Newport, RI.
