Keriann Salton

Keriann Salton, age 60, passed away on April 11, 2025, in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Born in Christchurch, New Zealand to Larry Kester and Anne Lansley, Keri lived a life full of love, compassion, and joy. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, and friend who touched the hearts of all who knew her.
Keri married the love of her life, Barry Salton, in September of 1986, and together they shared a beautiful marriage filled with laughter, support, and deep affection. She was a giving and caring soul who embraced life fully.
She had a love for the ocean, finding peace in the sound of the waves and the salt in the air. Throughout her life, she dedicated herself to helping others - first as a dental assistant, and later following her creative passion to become an interior designer. Her eye for beauty and detail brought warmth and elegance to every space she touched. A true connoisseur of life's pleasures, she delighted in shopping, good company, and all the finer things the world had to offer. Her elegance, warmth and zest for life will be forever missed.
She is survived by her loving husband, Barry Salton; daughter, Heather (Robert) Weise; son, Joshuah (Pamela) Salton; cherished grandchildren, Ella and Aubrey; and her beloved dog, Jax. She also leaves behind her mother, Anne (Keith) Lansley; sisters, Sandra (Jeff) Menago and Clare (David) Norman; and many beloved nieces and nephews. Keri was preceded in death by her father, Larry Kester.
A celebration of Keri's life will be conducted at 2:00 p.m., Friday, May 2, 2025, at Altmeyer Funeral Home Southside Chapel 5033 Rouse Dr. Virginia Beach, Virginia 23462. To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Keriann, please visit our floral store.
