Hans Verlan Andersen (November 6, 1914 – July 16, 1992) was a general authority of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) and a professor at Brigham Young University (BYU). Andersen was called to the LDS Church's First Quorum of the Seventy in April 1986. On April 1, 1989 he was transferred to the newly created Second Quorum of the Seventy. On October 5, 1991, he was released from his service as a general authority. He died of cancer on July 16, 1992.〔("H. Verlan Andersen Dies" ), Ensign'', October 1992.〕 ==Early life and education== Andersen was born in Logan, Utah, but mainly grew up in Virden, New Mexico. He served a mission in the church's North Central States Mission, which covered basically the northern great plains states. He then studied at Gila Junior College (now Eastern Arizona College) and BYU. After this he worked in Phoenix where he met Shirley Hoyt, whom he married in the Salt Lake Temple in 1943.〔("Elder H. Verlan Andersen of the First Quorum of the Seventy" ), ''Ensign'', May 1986, p. 101.〕 Andersen later received a law degree at Stanford University and also did advanced legal studies at Harvard Law School.〔 When the BYU Training School closed in 1968, Andersen met with a group of other BYU professors and parents with the intent of establishing a private school. They desired to have their children's academic learning enhanced and enlightened by principles of morality, religion, liberty and patriotism. The founders purchased an LDS meetinghouse in Pleasant Grove, Utah, and opened the American Heritage School in 1970 with 80 students enrolled.〔http://www.american-heritage.org/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「H.
