Landess Funeral Home, Inc. in Campbell, Missouri was established in 1920, when E. W. Landess came to Campbell from Van Buren, Indiana. He purchased the A. B. McBride Undertaking Co. and operated from that building on Front Street, in Campbell, adding a paint and wallpaper store to the business. Mr. Landess was a graduate of Worsham College of Mortuary Science in Chicago, Illinois and was the first licensed embalmer in the area.
He held licenses in Indiana, Tennessee, Missouri, and Arkansas. In 1934, E. W. Landess and his son Robert B. Landess formed a partnership and purchased the old Medley home in Campbell. This was converted into a modern funeral establishment. In 1938, Robert B. Landess married Christina Martin, a school teacher from Holcomb, Missouri.

At both of our funeral homes it is our privilege to build lasting relationships with the familes we serve.
Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.
Many who have undergone the emotional strain of arranging a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from their loved ones by relieving decision-making pressure at a time of grief and emotional stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice.
Most of us are not prepared to plan and carry out a funeral ceremony for someone we love.
