Tommy Lee Landers' Obituary
Tommy Lee Landers, of Longview, Texas passed away in his home on Friday, October 9, 2020, at the age of 79. Tom died peacefully in his sleep with his beloved wife Becky by his side.
Tom was born under a wondering star, in Marshall, Texas on September 11, 1941, to father Boney Lee Landers and Mother Edna Nadine.
He graduated from Hallsville in 1960 and then went into the Air Force from 1960 to 1964. After the Air Force he graduated from the University of Houston and worked for Hartford Insurance Co. from 1968 to 1982, owned and operated Tom Landers Claims from 1983 through 1992, and L-W Resources, Inc. in 2012 to present.
Tom loved to travel and was able to share many amazing adventures with friends and family along the way. He is most remembered for being a Colorful Character and he was a storyteller of extraordinary proportion.
“I have always maintained I was born in exactly the right place, in the perfect set of circumstances, and just in the nick of time. Otherwise, I would not be the man I am today enjoying the fruits of a successful business and love of a devoted family. I wouldn’t change a single thing of my life even if I could.”
Tom was preceded in death by his father Boney Landers, daughter Kim Landers and her husband C.T., and his nephew Brandon Knight. He will be missed by his wife, Becky Landers, mother Nadine Jackson, sister Patricia Anderson, bonus daughter Traci Taylor and husband Buddy Taylor, Granddaughter Kelsey Landers and husband, Jerriod Brown, Sofie Spellings, Jules Spellings and great -grandchildren Madalyn Loftis and William Ashby and many other family, friends, and business associates.
