Rev. Dr. George Landes Sr.

Condolences to Carol and the family, with very special memories of you and George from Shechem days on. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Vivian Bull

He was one of those special people who quietly and responsibly did good work, never seeking approbation, though deserving much! I trust you will take comfort in knowing that a very good and loving soul is now at rest. May all the memories be a blessing to you...

Our condolences to Carol, his family, friends and students.

George was a steady and supportive colleague at Union and beloved of all his students. Jim Sanders

George was a brilliant scholar, with the kindest of eyes and a great smile. Never one to talk of woes, he was instead, a great listener. He will be missed. Love to Carol, Chris and family from all of us.
