Emily R. Landis, 93, passed away peacefully of natural causes on May 31, 2020 at the South Mountain Memory Care in Emmaus. She was the wife of the late, Samuel N. Landis, Sr. who died in 2006. She was the daughter of the late George and Mary (Gulla) Benedick. Early in her life, she worked at Rodale Mfg. in Emmaus, and later became a housewife.

Emily was a devoted Catholic and lifelong member of St. Ann's Church in Emmaus. Her faith and her family were the most wonderful gifts in her life. She loved her family deeply, and always made them her priority. "Grammy" was especially happy spending time with her 8 grandchildren, or relaxing in her chair while cheering for the Phillies or the Eagles.
