In 2013, Rep. John Landon was sworn into the Iowa House of Representatives. I was honored to call him a classmate. We became friends wound up sitting next to each other for two years.
He was always grounded, honest, and humble. He gave great advice and always made time. He wasn’t there for the show, but for the state.
He once proudly told me how few bills he had introduced. I was shocked. Then he reminded me the people didn’t send him to the Capitol to fill up the codebooks with words.
This death has caused a lot of friends and family of Wertz so much hurt. It is in that mourning spirit that the concerned persons have taken to social media to share tributes to the deceased and condolences to the affected family.

Today, the Iowa House of Representatives lost one of its best members with the passing of John Landon. John’s district abuts my district, in fact, encompasses parts of Bondurant. Since my first day in the House, John was a guiding voice. Not just for our caucus, but also for new representatives like me.
John fought hard. This past year, despite his battle, he rarely missed a vote, showing his courage and perseverance to do the job he was elected to do. He was an inspiration to us all. This next session will simply not be quite the same.
