Obituary - Remigio “Junior” Vargas

Source: Junior Vargas

We are saddened to announce the passing of Remigio “Junior” Vargas, a resident of Fallon, NV for the last 40 years. He took his final breath in his home at 11 p.m. on November 14, 2024.

The 7th of 13 children, born on September 26, 1949, in the small railroading town of Battle Mountain, NV, Junior spent his childhood there where he graduated as a Longhorn. As a trade worker involved in the mining and processing of metals, he spent a few years in El Paso, TX. He later returned to Nevada to live out the duration of his life.

He is survived by his four children, Vincent, Crystal, Candice, and Pasqual; his grandchildren Mariah, Adrian, Cameron, Jayden, Carter, Bryce, Jaxtin, Logan and Emma; and his remaining brothers and sisters and numerous extended relatives.

A viewing will be held at Smith Family Funeral Home on Monday, November 25 starting at 10 a.m. followed by a public Mass of Celebration at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church at 11:00 a.m. Interment will follow the mass at the Fallon cemetery. Following the graveside services at the cemetery, a reception/luncheon will be held back at St. Patrick’s church hall.

“Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.”

Thank you Kelli Kelly.Comment publication date: 3/21/26, 8:12 AMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon ManComment author: Bob SondgrothComment text: There are times when you should just know about someone. Who and what they REALLY were. Because they were devotional and IMPORTANT to the humans they connected with. The content of their life bled so that others could feel their own life’s importance. Teachers of justifiable life and art. That all can absorb and use as the best fertilizer for THEIR lives. Giving the silent secrets and the loud guidance. The Melon Man was a perfect specimen for how to devote. His passing meant a life book of feeling/knowing what gives other humans their paths to Love and Knowledge. Some humans are meant to show others their paths. And in that they secrete ways to profitably exist.Comment publication date: 3/18/26, 4:50 PMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon ManComment author: Pam BitschenauerComment text: Ken, thank you for your kind words about Scott our "Mellon Man". My husband and I used to visit with Scott quite often when we lived in Fallon and then whenever we had the chance to as we passed through town. He was truly a good person and will be sorely missed.Comment publication date: 3/18/26, 3:15 PMComment source: In memorium -- The Melon Man
