John Landon, Jr. was called home to Heaven surrounded by family after a 3 year battle with cancer. John was born March 3, 1954, and died on his birthday, just as he predicted, 62 years later.
John was the 4th child and first boy born to Roy and Verna Landon. He grew up in Evergreen and graduated from Flathead High School in 1972. John and brother Doug were constant companions around the neighborhood, raiding gardens, snocatting in the fields, and getting into any mischief that came along.
At 23, John began his 21 year career with UPS, first driving night shifts, then delivering packages to homes and businesses in Whitefish. The ‘Man in Brown’ was known to everyone in the Whitefish and surrounding communities. He could tell you everyone’s name and address in the whole area.
When John left UPS, he began a second career – Landon Construction. He never had to advertise – he had so many jobs lined up by word of mouth. And because he was a perfectionist and never took shortcuts, people waited for him to do their project. He worked long and hard, until the cancer took over.
John is preceded in death by his parents, Roy and Verna. John is survived by his wife Robbie, his son Patrick, stepsons Ben and Cody, sisters Gale Noteboom (Harland Hanson), Diane Loomis, Ginger (Gary) Eastlund, and Sheila (Chuck) Thompson, brother Doug, many nieces, nephews, grandchildren, and many many other relatives and close friends.
