Theresa (Hudon) Landwehr our beloved Mother, Grandma and (Great) Grandma T passed away very peacefully on Tues. Nov. 29th at home with her daughter and granddaughters at her side. Theresa was born May 15, 1917 to parents Joseph and Josie Hudon, growing up primarily in Somers, MT. She attended High Flathead County High School graduating in 1935. After finishing her education at Dillon, Theresa taught elementary school at Charlo, Columbia Falls, and for several years at St. Matthew’s School in Kalispell. In September of 1945 came marriage to Vincent Landwehr and the birth of a daughter, Marilynn in l947. Both Theresa and Vincent were long time members of St. Matthew’s Parish. Volunteering and the pride in giving back was a very important part of her life and she did so for many years at St. Matthew’s Parish and School after retiring from teaching. There were many enjoyable and fulfilling hours also spent with the RSVP in Kalispell. July 2001 took Theresa and Vincent on a new chapter in their lives when they moved to Bonney Lake, WA to be with their daughter. The love for Montana never fades and and the beautiful Flathead was dearly missed by both. The presence of grandchildren and three great grandchildren was a wonderful comfort to both Theresa and Vincent. Theresa was preceded in death by her husband, Vincent (2008), parents Joseph and Josie Hudon, cousin Roberta (Bobbi) Hersman, and sister-in-law, Lee Landwehr.
