Randy Val Wildhaber, 72, of Fallon, Nevada, passed away surrounded by family on October 20, 2025. Born on April 25, 1953, in Sacramento, California, Randy lived a full and spirited life defined by hard work, adventure, and deep love for his family.
Randy’s career was as diverse as his talents, from trucking and construction to mechanics and business ownership. He founded and ran his own construction company and was known for being able to fix or build just about anything. His hands were rarely still, and his determination and craftsmanship left a lasting mark on every project he touched.
Outside of work, Randy found joy in the great outdoors. He was an avid hunter, especially proud of his elk hunting trips in the mountains of Colorado. Those who knew him best remember his stories, his grit, and his mischievous smile. In his younger years, he had a bit of a wild streak, one that earned him plenty of tales and tough-guy respect, but when he met his beloved wife, Salli, everything changed. She softened his edges, and together they built a beautiful life and raised two daughters who adored him.
Randy was preceded in death by his wife, Salli Wildhaber, his parents, Rose Miller and Earl Wildhaber, his brother Allan Wildhaber, and his nephew Joey Wildhaber. He is survived by his daughters, Melissa Wildhaber, son-in-law, Brandon Naffziger, Tabitha Larsson, son-in-law, Tanner Larsson, seven grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, his brother Duke Wildhaber, sister Susan Wildhaber Carlile, and a large extended family of nieces, nephews, and cousins who loved him dearly.
Randy will be remembered for his humor, his loyalty, his quiet strength, and the countless ways he showed up for those he loved. He was the kind of man who could fix your car, make you laugh, and tell you a story you’d never forget. His family takes comfort in knowing he’s reunited with Salli, the love of his life.
In keeping with Randy’s wishes, there will be no funeral or celebration of life. His memory will live on through the stories shared and the lives he touched.
