John Y. "Jack" Lansing

Jack was one of the finest men I have ever known. He always shared his time, his experience and his fabulous personality with all. He exemplifies the very best of 'The Greatest Generation'. May he rest in eternal peace.

Jack was my surrogate father at the legislature. My father had lobbied for what is now Associated Oregon Industries from 1927-57. In that position he met Jack Lansing early in Jacks career. My Dad suggested to AOI that they hire Jack. Jack told me many times that my Dad mentored him.


I was elected to the Legislature in 1962. By this time Jack was with PP&L. Jack took great amounts of time to mentor me. For this I shall always be grateful.

John,
I remember the years during college when I first met your dad and mom and we all formed a close relationship. I knew your dad then as a strong and determined man, who was a substantial part of the community
My condolences,

We had much fun at Abella's some Sunday evenings. Didn't know at the time who he was -- when we found out it was a loud celebration. He was much loved at the restaurant, where he always had his only 2 old fashioneds. We have missed him Sunday evenings lately. Glad he's at rest.

John was a good friend and he will be missed by many. I really enjoyed out little talks near the fireplace at SpringRidge. There is a void now that he is gone but not forgotten. God speed and bless his family. Duane Wiegand Front desk SpringRidge at Charbonneau

Shared a meal at a co workers retirement . A very integrating , personable man. And a great company president

Dear John and family - I read today about the passing of your father. I share our family's condolences and appreciate the memories you shared earlier this summer after my father's death. These men - your father particularly - lived long, rich lives and touched so many - though it is difficult to accept the passing of such leaders within our community. Kind regards from the Montgomery Family.
