Harold Langston, 72, a longtime resident of Fallon, passed away on October 7, 2019 at the Renown Hospital with his daughter, Wendy, and his wife, Alice, by his side. Harold battled vascular disease for several years and then cancer for a short time.

Harold was born on October 28, 1946 in Oildale, CA to Oran and Betty Langston. After living for a number of years in different towns along the coast where is father worked as a laborer at the air base. A number of years later they moved to Gabbs, NV where Harold helped his dad with a milk delivery route for several years. Eventually they moved to Fallon where Harold finished his high school education. He graduated from Churchill County High School in 1964.

Harold served in the Navy for four years most of the time being spent in Vietnam. He was proud of the time he spent there.

Anyone who knew Harold knew of his love for working with wood which is quite evident in his home which he built on Schurz Highway. He also had a love for the great outdoors where he could fish, hunt and just enjoy walking through the mountains enjoying the beauty around him. He will always be remembered for his quick wit and funny stories.
