Valerie Randall Obituary
Valerie was an artist, photographer, writer, graphic designer, and an optimist. She moved to Stonington Borough in November 2012 from California, and quickly became an integral part of village life. She became a friend to many and family to a lucky few. She loved living in small town New England, and celebrated it every day. Her photographs of Stonington and surrounding communities have become very well known and treasured.
Valerie was born on April 15, 1955, in Alaska, the daughter of the late Richard and Aramanda "Corky" Randall.
She is survived by her brother and his wife, Skot and Judy Randall of San Ramon, Calif., and their children Ashley Randall, Dana Pawlak, and Arron Pawlak; and her brother, Mark Randall of Castro Valley, Calif.
She was predeceased by her two beloved and crazy dachshunds, Mothra and Godzilla.
A memorial service to celebrate Valerie's life will be at 9 a.m., March 22, at St. Edmund's Retreat, Enders Island, Mystic.

Valerie always made the room brighter, the day more sunny, and the mood lighter. She was a wonderful person, and I enjoyed getting to know her, and her incredible work. I will miss our conversations about food, life and work..as well as her wonderful laugh. Our farmer's market will miss you Valerie, will think about you every week. My deepest sympathy to your family
