Bess Klassen-Landis

Bess Klassen-Landis’ Mom was raped and murdered in their home in northern Indiana, 36 years ago. Her murderer was never caught, however, the last thing Bess’ mother would want, would be for more violence to be done in her name.

“Bessie was 13 and I was 16 when mom was Killed,” according to her sister Ruth Andrews.

Bess is with the Journey of Hope to continue her own healing and to speak up for those on death row, many of whom have been victims for most of their lives.
