Michael Bruce Langdon

It is with profound sorrow and heavy hearts, we announce the passing of a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, Mr. Michael Langdon. On February 20, 2025, surrounded by the love of his family, Michael took his final bow, leaving behind a legacy of laughter, music, and unwavering devotion. Known to many as “Hollywood,” Michael was a true entertainer at heart. With his guitar in hand and a song on his lips, he had the rare gift of turning any gathering into a celebration. He was the life of every party, a man who could lift spirits with a joke, a melody, or simply his infectious energy. But beyond his love for music and laughter, he found his greatest joy in the kitchen, crafting recipes that brought people together. Cooking was not just a passion—it was an extension of his love for others. A man of many talents, Michael poured his heart into his work. As the owner and contractor of Circle L Renovations, he built more than just structures—he built relationships, trust, and a reputation for excellence. His hands shaped homes, just as they shaped the lives of those he loved. He previously dedicated his skill and commitment to Hartsville Lumber and Barns, as well as Dawkins Concrete and Finishing, where his work left an indelible mark. He was born in Danville, Illinois on September 22, 1964. Mr. Langdon was the son of the late Virginia Markwell and the late Jack and Minnie Langdon. His roots ran deep, and his love for family was limitless. As he steps into eternity, he leaves behind the love of his life, his devoted wife Angie, who stood by his side through every high and low. His legacy continues through his beloved children: Darlynn (Jon) Coates of Camden, South Carolina, Jillian Langdon (Emmanuel Ray) of Camden, and Jon Langdon of Hartsville. He also embraced his stepchildren as his own: Joey Brown (Katie McClain) of Hartsville, South Carolina, and Brittany (Kyle) Blackwell of Hartsville, South Carolina. His love radiates through his precious grandchildren—Maddison Lewis, Makayla Brown, Kyleigh and Kyain Blackwell, and his boys Gabriel, Grayson, and Caden Ray—each carrying a piece of his spirit, his humor, and his heart. He is survived by his loving sisters Goldie and Chip Martin of Danville, Illinois, Felina Hardy of Tennessee, and Carol Phillipe of Champaign, Illinois. His brothers, John (Deanna) Bishop of Valdosta, Georgia, and Donald Markwell of Danville, Illinois, share in the grief of his passing, along with countless nieces, nephews, and cousins whose lives were touched by his warmth. Michael now joins those who went before him—his parents Virginia Markwell, Jack and Minnie Langdon, and his dear sister Elizabeth “Dixie” Lucas—reuniting in a place where music never fades and love never dies. Though his voice may no longer fill our ears, his melody will forever echo in our hearts. His laughter will linger in our memories, and his love will remain, unshaken by time. Rest easy, Hollywood. Your song lives on. Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, February 25, 2025 at 6 pm in the Chapel of Kistler-Hardee Funeral Home. The family will receive friends beginning at 5 pm on Tuesday at the funeral home.
