When William Howard Landis was born in 1956, in Nashville, Tennessee, his father, William, was 28 and his mother, Judith, was 19. He has one son and two daughters with Valerie Keel. He has two brothers and one sister.

James’ Grandpa Landis told us once on one of our road trips that James’ Mom was the one who introduced Valerie to Bill. Mom says she does not remember that exact moment as they had many friends they introduced to each other so Mom said that it was quite possible, she just did not remember that exact introduction.

The wedding was in Nashville and a great time was had by all.
