Obituary – Robert (Bob) Candee
Bob Candee

Bob passed away peacefully with his family by his side.

He was born in Missouri, his family then moved to Fallon when he was a young boy, where they homesteaded. Bob graduated from Churchill County High School in 1947. He had a poultry business when he was called up to serve in WWII. During this time he met the woman he would spend the rest of his life with, Juanita Jackson.

Upon discharge from the military, they moved back to Fallon to begin their lives. Bob had the State Farm Insurance business for 37 years and also owned the Scarecrow Restaurant. He loved adventure and traveling.

Bob was preceded in death by his wife Jaunita, of 60 years, in 2017.

He is survived by his son Dale and wife Corie of Fallon, daughter Marilynn of Monroe, Oregon, five grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

A celebration of life will be scheduled at a later date.

My parents bought their insurance from Bob for many many years and he was reliable and dependable. I can still remember seeing him at the Cock and Bull along with Thurman Hiskett and a long list of Fallon's greatest businessmen. I pray for Mr. Candee's family during this time. Fallon has loss another great businessman.

Comment author: BonnieComment text: Good Luck to all of you. I mean this sincerely. My family fought the Navy for years. My parents owned Horse Creek (Pat and Linda Dempsey). They strung them along for years until they had no financial choice but to accept and get out. My Dad even hauled water for the Snow ranch trying to stay afloat. May God bless you all. I truly pray it works out for you.Comment publication date: 3/28/26, 9:22 PMComment source: Local Rancher Says Navy Land Expansion is Devastating His Family RanchComment author: Lynn JohnsonComment text: I remember your mother well; she was a lovely and kind woman.

I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.
