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.
