Joseph was a fixture at the American Legion, Post 55. He was there each night watching his boxing. God Bless you Joseph, you will be missed.

Joseph would often call with a question or comment and would always ask me to call him back later. "Can you make it after about eleven or twelve", he would say. "I like to watch Judge Judy and if I'm in that front room I can't hear the phone".



My sympathy to the family and friends of Mr. Landon; I am glad to have known him and I know he is at peace.
