To the Family of Myron Landon:

I am deeply sadden by Myron's passing. He was such a kind and nice man. I worked with him at the BOE and he was always smiling. My husband and I ran into him and his wife at a dance studio in Santa Monica we use to go to. He was quite light on his feet!! 'Always keeping fit, I still remember him doing push ups in our lunch room. May his spirit live on and I am happy to have known him. May he rest in peace.

To the family of Myron Landon:
Myron was a spirit with a beautiful and happy soul. He spent many years working with us at BOE. He often spoke happily of his family during the years and anyone could tell his family was his life and made him the happiest. May his soul rest in peace.

I am deeply saddened you have physically left us. I have enjoyed and loved every moment with you and your spunky wife, my Great Aunt Millie. You had a gentle, caring way about you that I will strive to duplicate. Thank you for the countless lunches and dinners our families enjoyed together celebrating. We laughed together, we talked business, we watched sports together, we shared stories and all this while I could personally tell you how much I loved you and you told me. You were a Mensch!! You truly were my Great Uncle. Dance and know that you made a difference in my life. Thank you.
