Landreth (Lanny) Wall, 72, of Boise, Idaho, passed away at home surrounded by his family on June, 11, 2016, after a long battle with lung cancer. Lanny is survived by his beloved wife of 36 years, Esther, son Michael Wall and wife Megan of Issaquah, Washington; Daughter Christine Thomas of Boise Idaho; Daughter TeAnna Kennedy and husband Tim of Durham, North Carolina; Stepdaughters Roberta Johnston and husband Blaine of Meridian, Idaho; Peggy (Ben) Scott, of Challis, Idaho; and Laurie (Brent) Watson of Eagle, Idaho, along with 16 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family, and long-time friends.
Lanny was born on July 19th 1943 in Wendell, Idaho to Marion and Lassie Wall. After graduating from Hansen High School in 1961, he served as a Hansen police officer.

He also enjoyed photography, especially capturing family memories, and hosting family and friends, particularly at the holidays when his homemade fudge was always in demand.
