Mr. Landrum was a model for my own teaching and coaching when I went into education. When I was injured and in the hospital he was the only person from LJHS to check on me. I will always look up to my teacher and coach. My prayers and thoughts go our to the Landrum family. Thank you for sharing him with us.

Sam Landrum was my basketball coach and history teacher in Las Animas in 1954-1955. He was a great coach and teacher. He probably has already located a golf course.
