Born October 24, 1959 in Indiana, Pennsylvania, he was a son of the late Joanne M. (Caylor) Denning and Corky Stearns. Randy lived with his grandparents, James and Sylvia Caylor until he was 12. An official “stump jumper”, he then moved to New York to live with his mother and step-father, George Denning along with their four children. Randy graduated from Holley High School, Class of 1979. He met the love of his life, Valerie Trisel in 1980, who he eventually married on September 7, 1990. Randy went on to work most of his life in farming, for Piedmont Farms, Lloyd Christ and Root Bros. Farm. He also worked for Pat Masela, Freeze Dry in Albion and did logging for Keith Kent. A hard worker, Randy lastly worked for Yancey’s Fancy in Corfu.
An avid outdoorsman, he enjoyed hunting deer, squirrel, pheasant and grouse. Randy also enjoyed fishing and his goal every summer was to compete in the Erie Canal Fishing Derby.

His family will miss him immensely.
