Rebecca Needham Anderson

Rebecca Anderson, 37, “gave the ultimate gift to mankind” when she collapsed and later died rescuing survivors at the bombed federal building. “She gave her life helping other people. She was safe. She could have stayed home,” her husband, Fred Anderson, said. Rebecca was a practical nurse at Brookwood Nursing Center. At the time of her death, Rebecca’s children were Hilary Johnson, 15; Gabe Johnson, 18; Rachael Harrold, 12; and Britton Harrold, 10.
