Donald Landgraf

Doctor Landgraf was my idea of what a doctor should be. Very caring and thoughtful. He was truly committed to helping you get well and able to function again as a useful person. I truly believe that when you were in pain he felt also. I really miss his smiling face.

You are still thought of, and truly missed!

Im sorry I did not know till today. I was a patient of Dr. Landgraf from 1975 till 2009. Job forced me out of area. Never had the proper healthcare since.Dr Landgraf took care of my sons as well as my grand daughter. Im shocked and sad by the loss of this great man.Please know my thoughts and prayers are with the family. People dont get any better than Dr. Donald Langraf, good by doc.

Dr Landgraf delivered both my children and was my physician as a child. He was the best docter I ever had. We moved too far to use him any longer. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. He is truly one of a kind and will be missed.

I received a letter in the mail today letting me know Dr Landgraf had passed. He was such a great person and the best doctor I've ever had! Ill miss chit chatting with him about the college i attended and his jokes he made about it! :) My kids, who are younger, loved going to my appointments with me, they loved talking to him and getting a sucker at the end of the visit! He was such a personable doctor and will truly be missed! My kids will be so sad when I tell them the news today! R.I.p. to the greatest doctor ever!

Not only my doctor for 30 yrs., but a good friend who really cared about his fellow man. Unreplaceable.......

We will miss Dr. Landgraf and how caring he really was. We were fortunate to have had him as our Doctor and will never find another like him.

Linda and John Garvey

I too was blessed to have Dr Landgraf as my doctor from the age of five years old, when i married he delivered 3 of my 4 children, cared for my family as they grew up. He was truly a wonderful doctor. The memories always bring a smile to my face as i talk about him to others. God Bless the entire family

Dr. Landgraf became my doctor whenI was in High School' I am 60 now and when I got married, my wife, also became his patient. He could always make her laugh. We will miss him deeply.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during your time of sorrow.

John and Elizabeth Warren

Rose, Bob, Jim and Mike,
I am saddened to hear about Don. The Landraf family should feel extremly fortunate that you were able to spend your days with such a great person. Personally I hope I didn't add too much stress to his life 25+ years ago, when Jim and I would get into a little trouble now and then.
Your legacy is the great family that you and Rose created.

Dr. Landgraf became my doctor when I was 11 years old. I am now 59. He delivered my son 38 years ago and my husand and family looked to him for all of our medical needs. For many years I had him promise he would never retire, because we would not be able to replace him. Dr. Landgraf was kind, compassionate, affectionate and the rarest of rare in the medical community. He is loved and will be greatly missed.
Diana Finn and the entire Finn/Valerio Family

so very sorry to hear of the passing of Dr. Landgraf. He truly was one in a million! Dr. Landgraf delivered my oldest son. When he deliverd Andrew, he gave my mom a chance to hold her new grandson and let her walk him to the nursery. He was such a compassionate, kind, gentle man. I moved away and to this day, I remember his bedside manner. Never made u feel like a number but his friend. My heart and prayers go out to his family. God Bless...Lisa Waranka (Agathen)

Dr Landgraf was the best doctor I have had and will be greatly missed. He was always there to help me as a patient out. I wish his family the best. Rest in peace Dr Landgraf

He was a teaching employer and a caring doctor. Our blessings and prayers to his family. Dr Don will truly be missed

The Tobin family had the good fortune of living across the street from Dr.Landgraf. I remember when I was just a kid he came rushing over with his black bag to take care of us, his wife Rose was a Saint raising their three boys at the time.
Over the years he took care of my children and I as well. No matter what the case, he could always make us smile.
He was a kind soul and a wonderful doctor.
Thank you Dr.Landgraf for being there for many generations!

~Kathleen Tobin Nelson Germantown, Wi.

Rest in peace Uncle Don.

Love and miss you

Mr Doctor and friend for 40 years.

I am so sorry to hear of Dr.Landgrafs passing.Dr. Landgraf was my doctor for 42yrs., he's the only doctor I knew. He has been our doctor for 4 generations so he was more than a doctor, he was truly a friend. He was the best doctor in the world. I'm sure going to miss his stories and jokes. I loved that Dr.Landgraf was an old fashion doctor, he never looked at his watch to see if your 15 min.'s were up, he took his time with his patients and got to know them personally. He would always ask how the family is doing, what's new ect. I loved seeing the look on his face when he would come back from a vacation (which seemed to me he didn't take enough of), he would talk about his family and fishing and how lucky he was to have such a wonderful wife. Dr.Landgraf, you will truly be missed.

Pamela Janecek @ family

Dr. Landgraf was the best, He was my family doctor for 30years. I can't imagine having another like him. I loved the fact that he was so down to earth and made my doctor visits at ease.He helped bring my son into this world 24yrs ago and actually put humor into my delivery which helped me out. As others have mentioned he is 1 in a million and I will truly miss him. I dont think I'll find another doctor to fill his shoes.God Bless Him And His Family.

Duct Tape
I searched the Milwaukee area for a Dr. when I arrived in 1997. I found a few and was quickly turned off by the impersonal attitudes and complete lack of bedside skills. I knew Dr. Landgraf was my doctor when he called me back to his evaluation room personally and sat down on a rolling stool patched with duct tape. This was Dr. Landgraf. He put the needs of his patients well in front of the petty superficial things and made his relationship with each of his patients the most important task at hand. God Bless you and I will miss you.

Our family is very sorry to hear of Dr. Landgraf's passing. My in-laws knew him when he first opened his practice on Hampton. When he wasn't busy he'd play catch with my husband who was about 8 at the time. And of course, as it is well known, he made house calls. My husband's grandmother couldn't always come to him so he would go to her and he was there when she passed away at home. Dr. Landgraf was my OB doctor and when it came time to deliver, there were complications and a specialist was called in, eventually a C-section was performed, but Dr. Landgraf stayed at the hospital all day taking care of my husband and mother. He was one in a million and there isn't anyone like him. Unfortunately medicine has become more of a business and doctors like Dr. Landgraf are a thing of the past. He will be greatly missed. Again our deepest sympathies, the Toussaint & Schramm families

My Mother and I were so very sorry to hear that Dr. Landgraf had passed away. He was our family Dr. for years when we lived in Butler. We have many fond memories of him. He delivered my sister Amanda, my nephew Andrew and my niece Sierra. He was a wonderful and caring man. He was well accomplished. He had a great sense of humor. He will be missed. Now he can rest up in Heaven with Jesus. God Bless you and your family. From

The world just lost a great humanitarian. Our city just lost a great doctor. But the greatest indicator of the positive impact Donald Landgraf had on this earth is that a thousand people feel like they have just lost a best friend. A man is not measured by the amount of money that he makes but rather by the amount of people who call him friend. Using this standard of measurement, Dr. Landgraf was a giant of a man. Thank-you for the stitches on my knee when I cut it playing army in your backyard. Thank-you for delivering my eldest son, Robby. Thank-you for your compassionate and empathetic approach to any problem presented to you. As any patient of Dr. Landgraf would attest, thank-you just doesn't seem sufficient for a man who dedicated his life to the service of others. Every memory of you and your family is a fond and treasured one.

It makes me very sad to hear of Dr.Landgraf's death. He has been my doctor for many years...he was always so kind and caring...my very own "Dr.Welby". He had a wonderful sense of humor and I always felt I was visiting a friend when I came to see him. I have the utmost respect for him...as a nurse, I have seen all kinds of doctors and he was one in a million. He will be greatly missed. I appreciate the kindness of his staff as well...my heart goes out to you and his family.

I learned about Dr. Landgraf through my friendship with Mike. I know how much faith and love existed in the Landgraf family, and that is something to celebrate. Dr. Landgraf will certainly be missed, but memories of him and his wonderful family will carry on.

Don And I attended St. Anne's grade school and Marquette University together. He was passionate about practicing medicine and he always was a gentle and caring person. He loved sports and was very good at playing "H-O-R-S-E". Our prayers are with Rosie, her children and grandchildren.

Th e Doc took cae of my motherfor many years,helped me through her passing, delivered my 3 children, & 4 of my grandchildren. I was a patient for 36 years & will truly miss him. He still gave our 18 year old a sucker when she came in. We all lost a wonderful, kind , compassionate man. Could call him any time of the day or night. We will never find a replacement for him. When God made Doc Landgraf he certainly broke the mold. My heart goes out to the family,his staff,& his patients.
The Paul & Kathy Toelle Family

Mike, Stephanie and Family,
We are so sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad. He sounds like such a wonderful man who has left an impression on your hearts that you can proudly carry forward. We hope that someday soon you will be able to smile again when you think of the wonderful memories that you have created with him. Our thoughts are with you now and always.

Working with Dr. Landgraf at St. Michael Hospital was always a pleasure. He always had a smile or a kind word for the nurses on the unit.

DR.DON WAS MY DOCTOR AND MY FRIEND FOR 40+ YEARS HE WAS TO PUT IT SIMPLY THE BEST OF THE BEST A DOCTOR'S DOCTOR ONE COULD DO NO BETTER THAN TO HAVE DON AS YOUR CARE PROVIDER HIS INTELLIGENCE,HUMANITY,AND UNDERSTANDING WAS SOMETHING TO BEHOLD. I"LL MISS MY FRIEND(DOC).
GOD BLESS HIM AND HIS FAMILY

Our thoughts & prayers with the Landgraf family. Our family Doctor since 1966, delivered our babies, doctored generations. He treated all of us with great humor and dignity from begining life to end. We all thank you Dr. Landgraf.

Corrao, Eichhorn, Steinke Family......

Rosie and family,I worked at the Butler Post Office for 30 years and whenever Dr. Landgraf would come in he would scold me and tell me that I needed to get our of that building as it was so terribly bad for my health as I was so prone to bronchitis. His concern touched my heart and I loved him for that. I will miss him terribly as I'm sure your family will. He was a great humanitarian. Arliene Detrie

Our most heartfelt condolences to the Landgraf family. What a precious doctor to me & our family...my first obgyn doc & delivered our 2 children/did surgery for my husband. We were graced with over 25 years of his loving care; as well as my sis in law, Anna(Lembach)Bahr. We loved him, and will pray for his family. forever blessed, Gaila & Jack Roper, Anna Bahr

Dear Landgraf family,

I am so sorry that Dr. Landgraf has passed on. Please know the Hegartys are thinking of him and all of you during this difficult time. Having talked to Mike last night I know that you are all celebrating his wonderful life together. We will do the same and continue to keep your family in our thoughts and prayers.

With love and sympathy,

My mother (W. Malvene Townsend) and I extend our heartfelt sympathy to Jim Landgraf and the rest of the Landgraf family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you celebrate the life of such a special man.

I am greatly saddened to hear of Dr. Don's passing. A truly kind and caring man. My condolences to his family.

Where do I begin to tell the story of such a great husband, father, grandfather, and DOCTOR. Dr. Landgraf was the kindest doctor we have ever known. He always put others before himself. He was our family doctor for many years, and I still can't believe he is gone. There is no replacement for Dr. Landgraf, at least not on this earth, and my heart goes out to Rose and his boys and extended family. Dr. Landgraf truly was an 'angel' here on earth, and we were truly blessed by our heavenly father to have him as our doctor. Rest in peace, and we will see you as a bright star shining up in heaven watching over us. We loved you.
Betty Feldbruegge and family

May God be with you and the family . RIP. Love the Denny family . Thank you for delivering me and my brother 1982. Prayers for family.

Dr. Landgraf, was our family doctor for many years, it started back in the early 70' he delivered 2 of our 3 kids. we were so happy with him and days when the kids were really sick and came into the office a joke and a lolipop started the vist. will truly miss him. my deepest sympathy tothe family, so very sorry for you loss.

I had the extreme honor of working with Dr. Landgraf . He was indeed a wonderful, caring human being. He always had a joke to share and made all of us smile. Even as his health started to fail, he was always there for his patients and shared a smile. My deepest sympathy to the Landgraf family. You were so blessed to have him in your life.

I am so sad to hear that Dr. Landgraf has passed. I will remember him as a caring doctor who always had a little joke to tell me when he came in to see his patients at CMH. (I am an employee of CMH) He could always make me laugh, even when I was having a bad day. I surely will miss him. His family is in my prayers.

How many doctors mean so much to so many people? We've moved out of the area, but Dr. Landgraf was my family's doctor for many years, starting waaay back in the 1960's when I was just five. He took care of my little sister when she became ill with kidney disease, put up with my father and even delivered two of my children as well as being their pediatricians when they were little. He was truly a great man.

I am so sad to hear the news of Dr. Landgraf passing away. I worked at James Pharmacy for many years and saw his patients coming and going . He was so kind to my parents as they faced my mom's cancer. My heart is so sad to hear he is no longer with us.

When a doctor looks at you, and says how are you? And really cares, is priceless! That was Dr. Landgraf! When your little son runs to him, and he picks him up, and tells everyone in his office this is my smallest patient, born at 1lb. And look at him now!
As he holds him, with pride and love in his heart!, that is Dr. Landgraf! I will never forget, the love he has shown through the years to me and my family! One life has touched so many, we will remember him always, with love and great respect!

Dr Landgraf was such i great docter .I will miss him so much he took great care of my family he will truely be miss.My condolences to landgraf family.

Dr. Landgraf was a role model. An idol. A really good man. An inspiration to be the best I can be. I am honored to have had the opportunity to work with him. Just think of him as resting from the pain and from the tears in a place so very awesome where there are no days or years. God Bless You, Dr. Landgraf.

I've been a patient of Dr. Landraf for over 40 years. He was a great Doc and one of a kind. A gentle man who always listened and tried to help in any way possible. I will miss him and I know his family knows how wonderful he truely was.

Dr. Landgraf was my doctor when I was little until I became a teenager. I was to his office many times for various things. He was a great doctor and will be missed.

My condolences go to the Landgraf Family. I am very sorry to hear about his passing. He was the Doctor for my extended family for many years. I've met him since I was child to an adult. I've never known a Doctor like him. He was very dedicated to his patients till the end of his time.

Dr. Landgraf was an amazing man. He delivered my two oldest children who are now 26 and 24. I worked with him at CMH and while there, he told me that if someone called him about a patient who was anxious in the middle of the night he would ask them, "well have you tried holding her hand, or bringing her a warm blanket or giving her a hug or some reassurance that everything was going to be alright?". Can't you just picture him saying that? What a kind, loving man. You will be missed by so many, but I am so grateful to have you up in heaven with all those special people I love. God Bless you and your family. You will be missed.

The world lost a humanitarian... a community leader... and an all-around great guy. Dr. Landgraf was the type of doctor that would always be running late... because he gave all of his patients all of his attention. He took the time to listen.

I never complained about his schedule... because I knew he was giving the person ahead of me the same attention I would eventually receive. I was fortunate to be one of his patients. God bless him and his family.

I am saddened by the loss of Dr. Landgraf. He has cared for me and my family since I was a teenager. My parents, my children and my grand-children.Childhood friends with his children. The world has lost a great man.

My condolences to the Landgraf family. Dr Landgraf was an asset to our hospital, he always treated us nurses - and all the staff - with respect, and he always had a new joke to tell every time he was on the floor. He will be missed.

I am so sorry to hear this news! Dr. Landgraf cared for 4 generations of my family. Including delivering me when I was born as well as all of my children. He will truly be missed! There are no other doctors out there that cared the way he did...

Melissa & Ricky Black & family

Aw I loved that guy! He delivered my daughter who is now 18. Awesome guy!!!

Dr. Landgraf was the best! He was my Dr.for a very long time. He also was a Dr. and friend to both of my parents. He was compasionate and kind all the time. Rest well and give Ernie and Ruth a hug for me!

Amy (Pulvermacher) Ruege

He was our family doctor for years. Rest in peace. Dr. Landgraf.

Dr. Landgraf was a very special & caring doctor who delivered my 2 children, who are now in their 40's. I was a travel agent & during my medical appointments he always inquired about my business. He'd tell me about the next hunting trip he had planned. His compassion & care of my family will not be forgotten. My sympathy & prayers for his family.

Sharon Ristow

Dr Landgraf told all the drivers at Monsen trucking the story of how he drove a dump truck to work his way through college. They went to him to get their physicals for a cdl licence. Rest in peace doc The Monsen trucking crew

Dr Landgraf was a brilliant Doctor and wonderful person. He always seemed truly happy to see me whenever I came in for an appointment. It was like stopping in to see an old friend who happened to be a great doctor. My condolences to his family I will remember him in my prayers. God Bless.

Dr. Landgraf had been my regular doctor since I moved to Butler in 1978. He always remembered things about my life and always asked about things from the past. I never felt like a number to him. He will be missed. God speed Dr. Landgraf!

We will All miss you Dr. Landgraf...My deepest sympathies to the family,friends & all the wonderful people at the office.. I started seeing dr. Landgraf when I was 7 years old 1979?..He always was so happy . I think almost 75% of my family also had him as a doctor. He delievered 2 of my kids and 2 of my mothers kids. He was a wonderful understanding Doctor and also loved his sports. He accepted everyone and treated everyone with compassion. He always made our visits warm & funny. We love you Dr. Landgraf!! May You RIP.

Dr. Landgraf was my doctor from the early 70's until the late 80's. He took care of me and delivered my kids. He had the best bedside manner of any doctor I've ever had. He was always there for you. He was a great, caring man. My condolences to the Landgraf family.

Dear Rosie and family,

I am so sad to hear of Don's passing. I can't begin to measure the great influence that Don has had on my life as a doctor and as a person. He not only taught me medicine, he stressed the importance of compassion. I will forever be thankful to him for this.
We have lost a great man.

I know that you will miss him. I will miss him too. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Fran and I are so sorry that we cannot attend Don's funeral.

In deepest sympathy,

Bob Kessler

Dr. Landgraf was my doctor since 1966 when I needed a physical to play high school football. Last saw him in October. Wonderful caring man, great doctor. Sad at his passing.

Dr Landgraf has been our family Doctor for his entire practice in Butler, approximately 40 years. Not only did he provide for our family of eight health's needs but, he remember all of our childrens name and asked about them whenever we visited him for our annual check-ups.

You can not find a more kinder, gentle and dedicated doctor to his profession. Our family will miss him.

My thoughts & prayers are with the Landgraf family. Dr Landgraf was my doctor when I was just a kid....some many many years ago & my parents both were still seeing him. I am really going to miss Dr Landgraf he was always a very down to earth person & always spoke from the heart.....

To the Family of Dr. Landgraf,

I would like to express my condolences because I loved him. He was my doctor and my friend.

Knew Dr. Landgraf since he was a young doctor practicing in an office without air conditioning! He took care of me, my family, delivered my children and my daughter's three children. He also took wonderful care of my 88 yr. old mother whose life he helped save two years ago. He will be remembered as a rare doctor whose human touch was loved and appreciated. He will be missed!

I was very sad to hear of Don's passing.. He was one of the most caring, genuine people I have ever met. He delivered both of my children into this world & cared for me and my family for many years. I will always have great memories of Don (fishing in Canada, etc.). My deepest condolences to the Landgraf family. Don was a great man & will be missed.

My sister's sentiments are so true. Dr. Landgraf was a wonderful man; so patient, kind, and a fantastic doctor. He cared for our mom, dad, and the two of us for many years. He set the bar for what patient care should be in my mind, and no doctor that I have seen over the years has managed to live up to his excellent standard of care and, more importantly, caring. My thoughts are with you, and I am terribly sorry for your loss.

The greatest and kindest doc ever. Doctor Landgraf, you will be missed!!

Dr. Landgraf was an kind, funny, intelligent, and decent man as well as an amazing doctor. He delivered all three of my children. I could tell many stories about him taking our calls at odd hours, coming in to the hospital on Sundays or evenings to give stiches or a cast, and his terrific empathy. He knew each patient well and always cared about both your physical and emotional health. He will be missed terribly. He was a very rare and exceptional doctor and human being. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and patients at this time.
Jill Busch and family

One of the good old fashioned doctors that I had the experiance of knowing. I missed him after moving to TN.
God Bless his family.
Dick & Barb Smith

I am so saddened to hear of Dr. Landgraf's passing. He delivered my sister and I and cared for our whole family for years. He was the kindest of man and such a skilled practitioner. I grew up to be a nurse and I am even more impressed by his skills, kindness and patience as I age. He will be truly missed and I am deeply sorry for your loss.
