Kerry Melrose Randall

Kerry M. Certonio Randall 

With heavy hearts, the family of Kerry M. Certonio Randall announces her passing on Friday, May 2nd, 2025. Kerry returned to her heavenly father and eternal family at the age of 76 due to complications after a hemorrhagic stroke. Up until the end Kerry continued to live a full and busy life and continued to work as a hairdresser. She was passionate about her family, horses, church and doing hair. Kerry was the definition of a social butterfly and had many friends, clients and loved ones that she kept in constant contact with. She was always planning family get-togethers and was so thoughtful to always remember to get everybody “a little something” for every holiday.

 Kerry started her wonderful life in Gallup, New Mexico as the only daughter of her beloved parents Melrose and Haydon Briggs on June 22, 1948. Kerry also had a younger brother, Barry, who passed away as an infant. She moved to Flagstaff, AZ as a child and developed her love for horses, hunting and the outdoors there. Kerry married young and adopted her first child Danny Briggs. She welcomed her second child Tracy Todd Farnsworth when she was 23 years old. Kerry married Anthony Certonio and had her sons Glyn Certonio and Tony Certonio while living in Blanding, Utah. Anthony also had two children Mark Certonio and Michelle Certonio and Kerry was a loving step-mother to them also. They settled in Apple Valley, Utah and raised their children there. Kerry continued her passion for her hairdressing career here and loved working at Julie’s Hair and Nails. Later in life, Kerry married her eternal companion Gerald Randall and was very active in her church and community. 

We will miss Kerry’s laugh, her warm hugs, her compassion for others, her love of good food, her entertaining social media posts and her loving texts that displayed her emotions through emojis ♥️😄. Kerry is preceded in death by her parents Melrose and Haydon, brother Barry, daughter Tracy Todd, daughter Michelle Certonio, grandson Trent Farnsworth and her husband Gerald Randall. I’m sure she had a very joyous reunion with each and every one of them. Kerry is survived by her son Glyn Certonio; son Tony (Lisa) Certonio; grandchildren Ashlee (Jake) Farnsworth; Jaden (Dayle) Farnsworth; Trinity (Landon) Little; Jezek Certonio; Haydon Certonio and Briggs Certonio as well as many great-grandchildren whom she cherished dearly.
