Obituary - Wesley Keith Ridenour

Obituary - Wesley Keith Ridenour

August 15, 1985 - August 5, 2024

Wesley Keith Ridenour passed peacefully at his home on August 5, 2024. He was born August 15, 1985, in Reno, Nevada.
Wesley was my hero and my guiding star. This man lived 38 years longer than they said he would and fought every step of the way. I never once heard him complain. He met every day anew with humor and a smile. He loved his family, his friends, and his dogs, and his jeep, though not necessarily in that order. He lived life to the fullest and enjoyed the ride. Wesley was extremely proud of his Canadian Heritage.

Preceded in death by his maternal and paternal grandparents, nephew Kobe, and his father Gary C. Ridenour, M.D., and his godfather Donald Formentini.

Wesley is survived by his mother, Debra Ridenour, brothers Aaron Ridenour of Seattle and Sean (Marie) Ridenour of Fallon, godmother Lola Formentini, nephew Dylan Ridenour, niece Lanell Ridenour, great-niece Amory, great-nephew Karter, and numerous uncles, and aunts and cousins and best friend Dina Formentini. He will truly be missed by all his family and friends.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Arrangements are under the direction of The Gardens Funeral Home, 2949 Austin Highway, Fallon, NV 89406.

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.
