THOMAS F. LANDERS

Tommy, as I knew him, was my uncle. Through events, my brother, Robert, and I lost touch with him. Consequently we did not know him or his family. It is wonderful to see he had a loving family and was admired by many. I mourn your loss. We lost our dad Leroy (Sonny) in 2015. So...prayers and condolences to the other Landers families...

Dad...You will be greatly missed by so many people. You have no idea the impact you had on so many people throughout the years. Someone always shares a great story about you with me. Those great stories along with my many memories keep you alive in my heart...like the time you were a police officer in Minersville and you thought it would be funny to pull your son over, putting every flashing light and spot light on me. I was going to try to out run you but what if it wasn't you?? I...

Well honey this is it ! The finality of everything hit me when we had your military service at Sarasota National . It was perfect ! You tried so hard to get through this unexpected journey of life and I tried to save you but it wasn't in the cards dealt ! Your last wish was that I have a life because you didn't . You will be with me on my next venture even though it's not the one I chose! I see you at 3 in the morning with your flashlight . " Anyone here ? I'm hungry " . We had a great life...

Dad, I am where I am today because of you. You pushed me to be a better person and were always there for me, not matter what, thank you. I'm going to miss being able to pick up the phone and call you, we used to have such great conversations. I think of you everyday and I miss you so much. I love you Dad. Love Janel

Will miss you pop. Left an impact on everyones life that you spent every minute with or even if it was a slight encounter. Every second spent with you could last an eternity with how enjoyable they were. Forever in my heart as well as everyone else who knew you. Love you forever.

Dad...there are so many characteristic traits I have of yours that will carry your life inside of me for a very, very long time. I will miss your stubbornness, believe it or not. It was always fun bantering back and forth and making you smile when you tried so hard not to. I love you and I will be visiting you soon. We are all grateful your fighting spirit has a peaceful place to rest now. Alli sends her love. Your youngest, Audra
