Richard "Rick"
Waldhalm
December 24, 1959 – December 26, 2024
Richard "Rick" Waldhalm, 65, Moose Lake, died on Thursday, December 26, 2024 on the farm he poured his heart and soul into. He was born on December 24, 1959 in Duluth to James and Elizabeth Waldhalm. Rick grew up in Moose Lake and attended Moose Lake High School. While at a young age and still in school, Rick began working as a heavy equipment operator for his family's businesses and retired from R & G Waldhalm Contracting in 2007. He married Janell Grant on November 28, 1980. Rick lived life to the fullest. He was a hard worker and never slowed down, even after his life changing stroke in 2015. One of his last big projects was doing the dirt work for his grandsons' backyard hockey rink. He enjoyed his friends, hunting, fishing, gardening, mowing the grass, raising his cattle, and most importantly his dog, Blu. Rick had a great passion for motorcycling and was fond of his blue 1976 Electra Glide Harley Davidson. Rick had a great love for his children and grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his father, James "Big Wally" Waldhalm; brother, Greg Waldhalm; and nephew, Zachary Salmonson.
Rick will be remembered by his wife, Janell; two children: Jeremy Waldhalm and Julie (Trent) Waldhalm; six grandchildren: Parker, Hallie, Paige, Kendall, Leighton, and Benson; mother, Elizabeth "Betty" Waldhalm; brothers: Jimmy Waldhalm and JJ (Kelly) Waldhalm; very special uncle, Jer Waldholm; numerous cousins, nieces and nephews; special friends: Scott and Patti, Kevin and Renata, Al and Hannah; and his favorite gal, Mari.
