Harold S. Landis, 93, of Willow Street, passed away peacefully on Saturday February 15, 2025. He was the husband of Betty J. Shenk Landis, who passed away in 2014. They were married for over 60 years. Born in Lancaster, he was the son of the late Benjamin L. and Ella Mae Snavely Landis.

He grew up on farms in Witmer and Strasburg.

Before buying a dairy farm in Willow Street, he and his wife served as house parents with Milton S. Hershey School for Children. He was a member of Willow Street Mennonite Church.

He is survived by four sons, Dennis Landis (Deb), Douglas Landis, Dean Landis (Cindy) and Darryl Landis; a daughter, Doreen Landis (Chrissy); 18 grandchildren and numerous great-grandchildren; brother, Paul Landis; sisters, Mary Hershey, Miriam Good and Joyce Eby. Harold was preceded in death by a daughter, Debra Landis, a son, Delbert Landis and brothers, Benjamin Landis, Aaron Landis and Ira Landis; and a sister Anna Elizabeth Harnish.

He will be remembered for reciting memorized poems, his sweet smile, the twinkle in his eye, and his mischievousness. When greeted and asked how he was doing, it was always answered with "Better". And instead of goodbye, it was "See you in the morning!"

There will be a Celebration of Harold's Life at 10:30 am on Friday, February 21, 2025 at Charles F. Snyder Funeral Home & Crematory, 2421 Willow Street Pike, Willow Street, PA with Pastor Eric Herr officiating. The family will greet family and friends from 9:30 am until 10:30 am, prior to the service.

A special thank you to Hospice of Central PA as well as Lancaster Nursing & Rehab Center for the compassionate care that he was given.
