Gary Evan Landson passed away peacefully on Dec. 13, 2023, surrounded by his loving family. Always the life of the conversation with a smile on his face, he will be missed dearly by his loved ones and his vast network of friends. 

Gary was born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1952 to Harold and Rosalind Landson and raised in Los Angeles. Shortly after graduating from the University of the Pacific, Gary moved to Houston where his passion for real estate led him into a nearly four-decade career in the commercial real estate industry. Throughout his career, he worked with landlords and tenants across the greater Houston area, ensuring everyone was successful with their respective businesses. Gary was quick to make friends and many of his colleagues became instant lifelong friends. 

In 1975, Gary met the love of his life, Margie. The two of them wed in 1976 and had two wonderful sons, Benjamin, and Daniel. As they raised their family, Gary’s life revolved around everything they did as he helped them become successful adults and loving fathers.  He was so proud of everything they accomplished and loved them dearly.

Gary will be remembered fondly as someone who had a heart of gold, an infectious laugh, and someone who always picked up the phone to check in on relatives and friends around the world. 

Gary is survived by his wife, Margie; brother, Joel Landson; sons Benjamin and Daniel and their spouses Colliny and Jessica; and his four grandchildren, Harlowe, Lucas, Adalyn, and Josephine.
