Shirley Diane Brookins passed away on Wednesday, November 12, 2025 at Hartford Health Care. She was 76 years old.
Jerald Preston Landingham of Samson, AL, passed away at home on Nov 11, 2025.
Funeral services will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 16, 2025, in the chapel of Warren Holloway Ward Funeral Home with Rev. Damon Wilson officiating. Burial will follow in the Landingham Family Cemetery with Warren Holloway Ward Funeral Home of Geneva, AL directing.
He was born February 20, 1949, to the late Grady Phonso & Inez Landingham.
His childhood was lived enjoying the dirt road, woods, creeks, and walking barefoot whenever he had the opportunity.
He attended school at Hacoda School until it was closed, then transferred to Samson High School and became a 1967 graduate. After high school, he moved to Birmingham, AL with a few of his friends to pursue an education in electronics. He would tell how it didn’t take long to realize Birmingham was more town than this country boy needed. Once, one of his friends mentioned the thought of heading home and attending MacArthur State Technical, they were packed and southbound by sundown.
After graduating from MacArthur, he went on to perform Telemetry operations at Site B4-A of Eglin Air Force Base in Eglin, FL. During that time, Jerald and his wife of 55 years, Lannett, raised four sons, Jerald, Johnny, Anthony and Douglas and welcomed several full dinner tables of their friends as time went on.
He was a wise man with a soft voice. More than a few times someone would pull up to the barn asking for help with an engine issue or an electrical question, he would grab a pecan twig and proceed to draw electric schematics out in the driveway sand to help show the person how to solve the problem.
He loved to roll up his pant legs and feel the sawdust under his feet as he worked in the cabinet shop to build beautiful furniture pieces and cabinet sets for countless homes over the past 4+ decades.
He loved fishing and got great pleasure in sitting on Black Creek snatching mullet over the edge of the boat. The “zing” of a taunt line always put a smile on his face.
Mr. Landingham was preceded in death by his parents, Grady Phonso and Inez Landingham; sisters, Annett Cooper and Florence Pelham; and one brother, George “Hilton” Landingham.
He is survived by his wife, Lannett Landingham; his four sons, Jerald Landingham (Deanna), Johnny Landingham (Stacey), Anthony Landingham (Shannon) and Douglas Landingham (Jade); grandchildren: Steven, Courtney, Jordan, DJ, Jessica, Nicholas, Brittany, Kaitlyn, Matthew, Trey, Lee, Austin, Dayton and Dalton; 9 great grandchildren; and one brother, Norman Landingham.

Tristan Daniel Singley, a spirited soul and God-fearing man, known for his vivacious personality and creative spirit, passed away at the age of 62 in Dothan, Alabama, on November 10, 2025. Born in Madison, Wisconsin on December 3, 1962, to the late Charlyne and Willie Singley, Tristan brought laughter and joy into the lives of those around him throughout his remarkable journey on earth.
Tristan’s early years in Madison laid the foundation for a life rich in character and marked by a unique blend of independence and warmth. His journey eventually led him to Los Angeles, where he embraced the vibrant culture before finally settling down in Dothan six years prior to his passing. Tristan’s move to Dothan was a testament to his adaptive nature and his ability to find comfort and happiness in new surroundings.
He is survived by his beloved children, Caleb Singley and daughter Selah Singley, who were the pride and joy of his life. Tristan’s legacy of love and creativity is also carried on by his brother, Wesley “Kevin” Grider, Sr., and his nephew, Wesley Grider, Jr. His cherished friend, Kevin, along with numerous other friends, will fondly remember Tristan’s inimitable presence and the indelible mark he left on their lives.
Tristan’s professional life was characterized by his commitment to hard work and reliability, traits that served him well in his blue-collar roles and throughout his tenure at Wal-Mart, from which he retired. His colleagues will remember him as a steadfast and dedicated worker, one who brought not only his labor but also his laughter to the workplace every day.
Beyond his work, Tristan was a man of many passions. His love for classic rock was only matched by his appreciation for good food and captivating movies. Those who knew him will recall his sense of humor—both silly and sharp—and the joy he derived from sharing a laugh with others. Tristan’s artistic nature was most evident in the beautiful and creative items he crafted for his children when they were younger, a tangible expression of his love and talent.
Tristan Daniel Singley will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. He was indeed a character—one who lived his life with authenticity and who never failed to leave a lasting impression. As we say goodbye to Tristan, we celebrate the memories, the laughter, and the love he shared. His spirit, undeniably unique and forever cherished, will continue to inspire and comfort us in the days to come.
