Arlo Q. Vidito, a man whose heart was as vast as the Idaho skies under which he was born, passed away on May 27, 2026, at the age of 38. Born in Burley, Idaho, on December 11, 1987, Arlo was a beacon of warmth and humor, whose life was a rich tapestry of love, laughter, and unforgettable moments.
Arlo was the cherished son of Luwanna and Jesse Vidito III and lived in Idaho and Illinois before settling in Visalia in 2001. He grew up surrounded by the love of his parents and older brother Jesse Vidito IV, learning the values of kindness and joy that he would carry throughout his life. He graduated from Sequoia High School in 2006, where he was on the basketball team and made it to the State Play Offs as well as class treasurer and on the school newspaper.
Arlo had a genuine ability to uplift those around him, always ready with a joke or a comforting word and his spot on impersonations of Chewbacca and Arnold Scharzenegger always earned laughs and smiles.
In 2021, Arlo married the love of his life, Justina Aldana, on a beautiful spring day, April 1st, a testament to his love for humor and surprise. Together, they built a life filled with love, warmth, and laughter.
Arlo’s life was one of varied interests. He was an enthusiastic swimmer and a juggler, whose towering height was matched only by the size of his spirit. His joy was contagious, and his capacity to make people smile was legendary.
Arlo leaves behind a family who will forever hold him in their hearts: his beloved son Jace Quin Vidito, his loving and devoted wife Justina, stepson Ayden Jak Hughes and stepdaughter Skyah Marie Hughes. He is also survived by his brother Jesse Viditio IV and sister-in-law Tracey Vidito, sister-in-law Laura Williams Rice, and his grandmother Joanna Jasper Vidito. Six wonderful nieces and nephews, Abigail Cundall, Richard Williams II, Phillip Williams, Lydia Williams, Claire Williams, and Charles Williams will always remember him as the uncle who could brighten any room.
He is also survived by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and so many friends.
Arlo is predeceased by his grandparents Glenn and MaryAnne Morrison, grandfather Jesse Vidito II, and his older brother Richard Williams, who are dearly missed and are now at peace.
In honor of Arlo’s memory, a private funeral service will be held on June 4th. The family will later host a Celebration of Life gathering to commemorate Arlo’s remarkable journey. Those wishing to share in this event are encouraged to send and email with ‘updates’ in the subject line to: [email protected] for event updates.
Arlo’s family extends their heartfelt gratitude to all who have shared in the joy of knowing him. While he may no longer walk among us, his spirit lives on in the laughter he inspired and the love he shared. Arlo Vidito will be deeply missed, but never forgotten, as he continues to cheer us on from the starry skies above.
