Anson Jeffrey Lehman, age 31, of Burr Oak, passed away unexpectedly Sunday evening, Feb. 7, 2016, at the home of his brother in Three Rivers.
He was born May 23, 1984, in Kalamazoo, a son of Jeffrey Owen and Terri Lu (Walker) Lehman.
Anson resided most of his life in White Pigeon and was a graduate of White Pigeon High School with the class of 2003. He had been living in Burr Oak since May 2015.
On June 3, 2006, he married the girl he knew since the second grade and his high school sweetheart, Kristen Baker, at Trinity Missionary Church in Constantine.
Anson was currently employed by L&W Engineering in Middlebury, Ind., and he also had worked for Quadra Manufacturing in White Pigeon.
He was a member of Whole Life Christian Fellowship Church in Sturgis. Anson enjoyed playing video games with his brothers. He was a talented poetry and short-tory writer and a fan of “Star Trek,” “Star Wars” and Superman. It was not uncommon to see Anson wearing Superman shirts and other clothing.
