S. Keith Landis, 68

September 8, 1956 - November 13, 2024

S. Keith (Keith) Landis, of Brownstown, PA, went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, November 13, 2024. He was 68 years old.

Keith was born on September 8, 1956, in Harleysville, PA. He went to Souderton High School and graduated in 1974. He is survived by his wife Rhonda Landis, whom he married in 1976, his daughters Rachel Groff (wife of Jason Groff) and Jessica Diller (wife of David Diller), his grandson Bryce Mizeras, his mother Lillian Landis, and two siblings, Linda Mariano and Andrew Landis. He was preceded in passing by his daughter Brooke Landis, his father Sanford (Sam) Landis, and his sister Bonnie Crane.

Keith loved his family very much. He was a kind, honest and caring man and a wonderful father and husband who would do anything for his family. He was an avid outdoorsman and loved hunting, riding ATV and spending time at his cabin. In his younger years he spent much of his free time fishing, camping, riding his motorcycle and enjoying his property in Lewes, Delaware. He and Rhonda were very involved in fostering children and dogs.

Keith worked at the rendering plant formerly known as Valley Protein, for 30 years. He worked his way up to the position of General Manager and was loved and respected by his coworkers. Prior to Valley Protein, Keith was employed at the family butcher shop, T.M. Landis.

Keith will be missed very much by all the family and friends who love him. We find some peace and comfort during this difficult time knowing that he spent his last moments at his cabin…his “Happy Place”…looking at the mountains, and in the knowledge that we will see him again someday in Heaven.

A visitation will take place from 10 to 11 am, followed by a memorial service at 11 am with The Rev. Mark T. Thiboldeaux officiating on Saturday, November 23, 2024, at the Charles F. Snyder Jr. Funeral Home & Crematory, 3110 Lititz Pike, Lititz, PA 17543.

In lieu of flowers, kindly consider a donation in Keith’s honor to a charity of your choice.
