Anita Landis

HAMMETT, Idaho – Anita Jean Landis, 55, died Oct. 15, surrounded by loved ones, at her Hammett, Idaho, home, following a long battle with cancer.

Mrs. Landis was born June 15, 1959, in John Day, to John Isham and Myrtle Alice Stinnett. She graduated from Grant Union High School in 1977, and moved to Hammett to live with her sister and brother-in-law.

It was there she met the love of her life, Steven Paul Landis, whom she married on Nov. 18, 1978. They had two daughters, Laura and Sarah, and later opened their home and hearts to four children, Alexis, Austin, Lorenzo and Patricia, whom they loved as their own.

She committed her life and energy to caring for her family, with her grandchildren holding a special place in her heart.

As a child, she dedicated her life to the Lord. She was involved in many church activities, and supported her husband’s ministry. Her desire was that all her family would grow up to have a firm relationship with Jesus.

Her hobbies included hunting, fishing, and gardening. She also enjoyed working alongside her husband on their family farm.

Survivors include her husband, six children, four grandchildren, seven brothers and one sister.

She was preceded in death by her parents and two sisters.
