Landan had a beaming smile, dashing good looks, and the gift of making friends with everyone. He was known for his quick wit, kind and caring personality, and strong work ethic. From a young age he helped his father run their family business, and enjoyed working on their matching truck project in their spare time together. He spent his last summer caring for his grandmother in Ohio during her chemo treatments. He was the love and light of his parent's lives, and will be remembered for his baby dimples. He was the greatest gift and biggest blessing.
His funeral service will be held Friday, October 25 at East Canton Church of God (201 East Nassau St. Canton, Ohio 44730) with calling hours from 3-4 pm, service at 4pm, meal to follow in the Fellowship Hall.
Rest in Him, Landan. We love you.

Landan I only met you a few times when you were a little boy with big cheeks. Your smile lit up a room even then. I will never forget when your mom told me she was pregnant with you. Your parents were over the moon. You are loved by so many people. Even people you never really met. It was such a a pleasure watching you grow into the beautiful young man. What a beautiful heart and smile you had. As you shine your light on your parents know you will forever be with them and them with you. Love you sweet boy.

Landan, you were my one and only nephew. I remember rushing home from collage to hold you the first time for hours and hours while your mommy rested. I watched you sleep sweetly and kissed those chubby cheeks every chance I could. You were my buddy, and we did everything together every chance I had to be with you. You shared in all my big life moments, and I was very proud of you. You made your own path, even when it was hard for us to understand. My chipped jaw bone lives in memory of you just wanting to do things your way even as a toddler. We love you, and know you are at perfect peace. I'll keep a good eye on your mom and dad. We'll celebrate again together soon. Give Juno, Lulu, and Lindsay a big puppy kiss for us. I love you always! Aunt Jen
