It is with profound sadness and a heavy heart that we share the unexpected passing of our dear Timothy W. Landers on March 15, 2025. Tim’s departure has left a void that words can scarcely express. A beloved husband, father, brother, and friend, Tim was unexpectedly taken to his Heavenly Home, leaving behind his loving spouse, Anita Perry, and many friends and family who will always remember his kind heart, infectious personality, and love for life.
Tim’s life was a testament to the joy he found in living each day to the fullest. He was known for his warmth and his ability to make those around him feel loved and appreciated. Whether he was spending time with family, embarking on spontaneous adventures, or lending a helping hand to a friend in need, Tim approached everything with a sense of enthusiasm and love. He cherished the moments he shared with his loved ones and had a knack for making even the simplest occasions memorable.
One of Tim’s greatest joys in life was spending time with his family. He and his wife, Anita, shared a deep bond rooted in love, respect, and a shared passion for life. Together, they created countless memories that will live on in the hearts of those who knew them. Tim’s love for Anita was evident in everything he did, and his dedication to her and their family was unwavering. He worked hard to provide for them, but equally important to him was ensuring that they enjoyed the time they spent together. Whether it was a quiet evening at home or a spontaneous trip to explore new places, Tim made sure that every moment counted.
Tim cherished the opportunity to take spontaneous trips with those he cared about. He loved to travel, whether it was a short weekend getaway or an extended vacation. These trips were more than just vacations to Tim—they were chances to create lasting memories with the people he loved most. He had an adventurous spirit and enjoyed discovering new places, trying new foods, and experiencing different cultures. His spontaneous nature made him the kind of person who could turn any outing into an adventure. For Tim, it wasn’t the destination that mattered most, but the people he was with and the moments they shared along the way.
Hunting was another one of Tim’s great passions. He found peace in nature and loved spending time outdoors, whether he was tracking game, enjoying the quiet of the woods, or simply appreciating the beauty of the natural world. Tim was a skilled hunter, but more than that, he valued the time spent in nature as an opportunity to bond with friends and family. It wasn’t just about the hunt for Tim; it was about the camaraderie, the laughter, and the shared experiences that made these outings so special. His love for the outdoors was matched only by his love for the people he was with, and his ability to make these trips meaningful and fun was something that everyone who joined him on these adventures cherished.
Cooking was another one of Tim’s many talents, and he loved to share his passion for food with those around him. Whether he was preparing a simple family dinner or a grand feast for friends and relatives, Tim always put his heart into his cooking. He took pride in creating meals that brought people together, and his kitchen was often the heart of his home. Tim had a special way of making everyone feel at home, and his meals were always filled with love and care. It wasn’t just about the food for Tim; it was about the experience of sharing a meal with those he loved, exchanging stories, laughter, and creating memories over the dinner table.
Beyond his love for family, travel, hunting, and cooking, Tim was a man who made an impact on everyone he met. His warm heart and genuine kindness drew people to him. He had an innate ability to make everyone feel welcome and valued, and his friendship was something to be cherished. Tim was the kind of person who would drop everything to help a friend, whether it was offering a listening ear, providing a helping hand, or simply being there when someone needed him most. His sense of humor, his infectious laugh, and his genuine interest in the lives of those around him made him a friend to everyone. Tim’s friendships were built on a foundation of trust, loyalty, and respect, and he was a constant source of support to those lucky enough to call him a friend.
The suddenness of Tim’s passing has left a deep sense of shock and sadness in the hearts of his family and friends. While his physical presence is no longer with us, his memory will live on in the stories we share, the laughter we continue to enjoy, and the love he so freely gave to those around him. Tim’s legacy is one of joy, kindness, and a love for life that will continue to inspire us all. His ability to find beauty and joy in the simplest of moments reminds us to cherish the time we have with the people we love.
As we grieve Tim’s passing, we also celebrate his life—the love he gave, the memories he created, and the impact he had on all of us. We find comfort in knowing that his spirit lives on in the lives of his wife, Anita, his friends, his family, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. His legacy is one that will continue to guide us as we honor his memory and carry forward the lessons he taught us about living fully, loving deeply, and appreciating every moment.
During this time of loss, we ask that you keep Tim’s loved ones in your thoughts and prayers. The pain of losing someone so full of life and love is overwhelming, but the support of friends and family will help guide them through this difficult time. As we remember Tim, we are reminded of the importance of living with love, gratitude, and purpose. Let us all strive to live as Tim did—embracing life’s adventures, cherishing the time spent with loved ones, and finding joy in the simple things.
Timothy W. Landers will be deeply missed, but his memory will forever remain in our hearts. His love for life, his warm heart, and his ability to make the world a better place simply by being in it will continue to inspire us all. Rest in peace, Tim. You will always be loved, remembered, and missed by everyone whose life you touched.
