John was born July 19, 1942 in Pittsfield, MA to the late, John H. Landon and Agnes L’Heureux Landon.

John served proudly in the US Air Force from 1960-1964, serving as an airplane mechanic. For the remainder of his career, John worked as a general contractor, first along side his father, then leading the business of Landon & Hall in Guilford, CT, designing and building exceptional homes until his retirement in 2004.

Upon moving to coastal NC in 2004, John designed and built his final project- a post-and- beam timber frame home which he called “Mayberry”. John loved fiercely-his family, his friends, the game of golf, and woodworking: designing homes, creating Shaker style furniture, carving and painting decoys and turning bowls.

A memorial service / celebration of life will be held at a later date to be announced.
