LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — Ronald Maurice "Marbles" Anderson was born on April 29, 1949, in Lakeport, California. He entered into rest on June 24, 2025. 

He is survived by his youngest daughter, Melinda; stepchildren, Toni, Rick, Matthew, Brett, Joel, Jesse, Jill, Jackie, Roxanne and Jody; sisters, Doris of Lakeport, Quita of Woodland, Carmella of San Francisco Bay Area. 

Marbles lived a very adventurous life. He loved to cook, spend time with his sister, Doris and casino therapy. 

He loved to watch his old cowboy shows, WWE wrestling with his grandkids, and sitting back and watching the Native ladies play softball. Also gathering seaweed in Fort Bragg, demolishing a seafood buffet with his nephews, or just relaxing with a cold one. He always had a smile and a kind word when you met him.  

He will never be forgotten, will always and forever be loved, and safely locked away in that special place in our hearts …

Traditional Native American visitation will be held at his home in Lakeport starting on Friday, July 4, at 9 a.m. until Monday, July 7, early morning.

Visitation will continue on Monday, July 7, at Chapel of the Lakes Mortuary from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m.
