Genevieve "Girlie" Brabazon Randall, was born at her family home on September 9, 1918 in Perkins County, SD to Evalyn Ann Smith and Byron "Pops" Brabazon. She attended Parker Country School in Perkins County, SD and later attended Hettinger High School.

She married Cecil Randall on June 30, 1940 in Montana. They had four children, Janice, Leslie, Geraldine and Warren.

They farmed in Perkins County, SD for 49 years. Girlie also worked for several years at Western Horizons Senior Center and the City Cafe in Hettinger. Girlie and Cecil moved to Hettinger upon retirement in September, 1990.

Girlie loved to ride horses and raise a garden. She enjoyed decorating and reading Better Homes and Garden. She had a craving for "boy's toys" and loved to drive her Honda motorcycle, snowmobiles and International Scout. Girlie was an excellent cook and baker. Her grandchildren are especially grateful for her "runny jelly". Girlie always said if you walk a mile a day, you'll live to be 100 years. She was right.
