There's not a day that goes by where we don't think of and mention Ronald E. Landells.  He was indeed an original.  There will never be another "cute little old man who doesn't stink."  And, when we get frustrated, we always think of his famous, "What the Hell?" phrase.  There will also never be another dancer like him who danced to "Tangerine" at his daughter's wedding.  Ronald E. Landells buried two wives.  He was one hell of a strong man.  He raised six kids alone after his first wife died.  The man had GRIT.  Sure, he had a few small faults.  BUT, it really took a lot to get him to the point that he took a hammer to the television set!  You did not want to get the man mad.  He certainly had his "Popeye" moments..."That's all I can stands, I can't stands no more!"Overall, a GOOD, KIND, LOVING, GENTLE man who should  be remembered for a very LONG time!!!

Dad, I loved dancing with you.  You always look so handsome in your tuxedo and shiny dancing shoes. You were smooth and suave. My favorite memory of dancing with you was on my wedding day.  How wonderful it was to share that moment of joy with you, dancing to "our song" Paper Moon. I will miss you, but am content in the knowledge that Christ promised us salvation and I will see you once again in God's Kingdom. I love you, Molly Ann.
