Helene, Jimmy and Anna,and David, I just found out from Aunt Marie about Greg and I am so sorry as he is the same age as my Carolyn. I know he is in God's care but that doesn't stop the hurt which never goes away. Our love and prayers are with you all.

Helene and family
My heart aches for you & the kids..I will keep you all in my prayers that God gives you strenght. Came across this prayer, thought I'd share:
"Feel no guilt in laughter, he'd know how much you care. Feel no sorrow in a smile that he is not here to share. You cannot grieve forever; he would not want you to. He'd hope that you could carry on the way you always do. So, talk about the good times and the way you showed you cared,The days you spent together, all the happiness you shared. Let memories surround you, a word someone may say Will suddenly recapture a time, an hour, a day,That brings him back as clearly as though he were still here,And fills you with the feeling that he is always near. For if you keep those moments, you will never be apart; And he will live forever locked safely within your hearts."
Love, Antoinette

I'd like to go back to being 16, to sit in your basement... Learn to play darts...or rather avoid them. I'd like to hear piano man again for the first time or better yet Hotel California and I'd like to say... You made an impression... I can only imagine how much you will be missed by those whose lives you have touched in recent years.My thoughts are with you,Helene and family.

Dear Helene and the entire Landis family,

I am beyond devastated to learn of this terrible news. Greg was a dear friend. He and I could go long periods without seeing or talking to one another but the minute I'd hear his voice, a big smile would come across my face and it would seem like it was only yesterday that I last saw him. That was the kind of guy he was- funny, with a huge personality that could light up a room, and an even bigger heart. There are many great memories I have of Greg, going back to Penn State and summers down the shore at our house on Hand Ave. Then some years passed after college/jobs/marriage/kids. So Jeannine and I felt extremely blessed that we were able to re-connect and spend a great summer with Helene, Greg and the kids in North Wildwood several years ago.

I am so deeply sorry for your loss. You are all in our thoughts and prayers - may you find some healing and comfort during this tragic time. Helene, please do not hesitate to let me know if there is anything whatsoever Jeannine and I can do for you and the kids.

Judy Pietro

February 19, 2014

Helene, words cannot express our sorrow. Anything you need, or the kids, please know you can count on us. Keeping you in our prayers..........

February 19, 2014

Landis Family, our sincere condolences.
As the sun rises and sets, We will remember Greg, as the tide rolls in and out we will remember him. As the wind blows and the chill of winter arrives we will remember him, as the flowers open their buds and rebirth of spring arrives we will remember him. As the blue skies and hot sun bring the warmth of summer, we will remember you, as the nights get shorter and the rustling of the leaves bring in the beauty of autumn, we will remember Greg. As long as we live he too will live, for his a part of everyone as we will always remember Greg. Our prayers and thoughts are with you all.
Karen Taylor-Manien and Bobby Manien
