Obituary for Landreth" Lane" J. Emswiler
Landreth 'Lane' J. Emswiler, a devoted father, loving husband, and proud patriot, passed away February 6, 2025. Born on August 4, 1988, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana to David Emswiler and Samantha Emswiler. Raised in a military family, Lane lived in various locations across Texas, New Mexico, and Louisiana before settling in Buffalo Gap, Texas, where he graduated from Jim Ned High School.
In 2008, Lane answered the call to serve his country by joining the United States Air Force. As an avionics mechanic, he worked on F-22 and F-35 fighter jets, dedicating himself to ensuring the safety and success of his fellow service members. His commitment to duty and country was a source of immense pride for his family and friends.

The couple made their home in a few different small towns in Texas, before moving to Cotton County and finally settling in Mountain Park, Oklahoma. Lane continued his service to others as a correctional officer at the Oklahoma State Reformatory, where he approached his work with integrity and dedication.
Above all, Lane cherished his role as a father. He adored his children, Carissa, Sophia, Elise and Merrick, and treasured every moment spent with them. Whether playing video games, watching anime, or embarking on family gaming adventures in Minecraft, Lane's love for his family was evident in everything he did. He was a pillar of strength and support, always willing to go above and beyond for those he loved.
Lane was preceded in death by his maternal grandmother, Deborah Smith; his paternal grandmother, Minnie Emswiler; and his paternal grandfather, Joseph Emswiler; his beloved daughters who passed with him, Carissa Monet Thomas, and Elise Mae Emswiler.
Left to carry on his memory and legacy his beloved wife, Beverly Emswiler; his daughter, Sophia Emswiler; his son, Merrick Emswiler; his parents, David and Christine Emswiler, and Samantha and Adalberto Esqueda; his siblings, Christian Emswiler, Maya Emswiler, Minda Emswiler, Denise Esqueda, and Ana Goings; his maternal grandfather, Rocky Smith; his maternal grandfather, Sam Higdon, and his wife Jackie; and a host of extended family members and friends who will carry on his legacy of love and devotion.
Lane's life was a testament to the values of service, family, and kindness. His memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. A celebration of Lane's life will be held at Lowell Tims funeral home chapel on March 8, 2025, at 2:00pm with Will Archer officiating.
