Obituary

Patrick Arief Anderson was born in Rockville Centre, New York to Sydney Ray Anderson and Erna Suyudi Anderson on January 11, 1983. In his early years he attended St. Martha’s Catholic School and later attended and graduated from The Waldorf School of Garden City in 2001 where he made many dear friends. He had fond memories from childhood of travel to visit family and close friends in Indonesia and St. Vincent. Patrick graduated from Carnegie Mellon with a B.A. in language and communication in architecture in 2005. He went on to continue his studies in Europe. He obtained an MFA in graphic design from Ecole Nation Superiéure de Création Industrielle in Paris and an MFA in scenography from Central Saint Martins in London. Patrick’s career led him to design with fashion giants like Joie, ADAM, Haute Hippie, VPL, Lanvin, Alexander Wang, Helmut Lang, Jayne Pierson, Johannes Faktotum, and Alexander McQueen. He had an attention to detail and eye for fashion that transcended most of us. Patrick will be remembered and missed by all of us as a unique, warm, and generous spirit. He had a dry sense of humor, and an amazing love of animals. In many ways, this world was too harsh for a spirit as creative, gentle, and generous as his... Patrick died peacefully and surrounded by family on Friday, March 30, 2018 in the ICU at the Penn Princeton Hospital in Plainsboro, New Jersey. His final weeks of life were a blessing to our family - filled with joyous moments and reunion. We believe that our prayers and your prayers brought us this. And we all believe that Patrick is celebrating his life on this earth with us from a kinder and gentler place where he feels at home.
