Elizabeth Anderson, 42, management consultant

Elizabeth Anne Anderson, 42, of Elverson, a management consultant in the pharmaceutical industry, died Wednesday, June 10, of lung cancer at Paoli Hospital.

Known to friends as "Beth," Mrs. Anderson was ill for three months, and during that time, family members were her constant companions.

She was the wife of Timothy L. Anderson. The couple would have celebrated 19 years of marriage July 13.

The executive director of sales operations practice for TGaS Advisors in East Norriton for the last five years, Mrs. Anderson specialized in providing "custom benchmarking and advisory services" to big drug companies and biotech firms.

She had worked for TGaS since early 2010.

Before that, Mrs. Anderson worked at Wyeth Pharmaceutical (Pfizer) in Collegeville for a decade doing information management, call plan processing, and managing people and information to maximize sales.

She led the development of a prescriber compliance system designed to limit off-label use of medicines. For her efforts, she was recognized with achievement awards in 2005, 2006, and 2008.

In her LinkedIn profile, Mrs. Anderson described herself as having "strong interpersonal communication, analytical, and project management skills, and as a team player with a 'get it done' attitude."

"She will be remembered by her work associates for her dedication and professionalism," her family said.

Born in Lancaster, she was the daughter of Michael and Catherine Cuskey Sidler.

She was a graduate of Downingtown High School and West Chester University, with a bachelor's degree in communications.

First and foremost, however, Mrs. Anderson thought of herself as a wife and mother. She loved being at the beach and spending time by the pool with her family.

She enjoyed traveling, gardening, dancing at the Green Turtle in Lewes, Del., and taking daughters Hannah, Halle and Lynzee shopping and to get their nails done. She was rarely seen in public without lip gloss and a beautiful purse.

Mrs. Anderson was an active board member of the Twin Valley Lacrosse Club and attended all of her daughter's lacrosse games.

In addition to her husband, daughters, mother and father, she is survived by a sister, and nieces and nephews.

Visitation is to be from 6 to 9 p.m. Wednesday, June 17, at the DellaVechia, Reilly, Smith & Boyd Funeral Home, 410 N. Church St., West Chester. A memorial service is planned for 10 a.m. Thursday, June 18, at the funeral home. Interment will be private.
