Lonnie was a very good friend and neighbor. I had my Real Estate salesman license with him in the 70’s and 80’s. I would love to go to the office and chat with Lonnie, He was funny and very entertaining. A wonderful man whom will be missed and always remembered.
What a great man. He loved my family like his own. He leaves a beautiful legacy of kindness and humility.
Mr.Landgraph was a distinguished gentleman! Never partial and loving every one he met! Sending sympathy to the family! He was there for me! Well done!
