Inez Allen Randolph

November 14, 1936 — October 5, 2026

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Inez Allen Randolph, who departed this world on October 5, 2026, at the age of 89. Born on November 14, 1936, in the serene town of Sopchoppy, Florida, Inez was a beacon of grace, love, and resilience throughout her life. Inez was the cherished daughter of the late David and Vester Rosier. From an early age, she exhibited a vibrant spirit that would touch the hearts of many. Following her graduation from Shadeville High School in 1954, Inez pursued her passion for beauty and spent 40 rewarding years as a professional hairstylist in Tallahassee, Florida. Her skill and dedication not only transformed appearances but also uplifted spirits. Inez's life was enriched by her deep faith and her commitment to ministry. She shared her angelic voice and unwavering devotion at New Providence Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles, California, where she ministered through song and praise from 1978 to 2000. Her spiritual journey continued as she served as a Mother at Chosen Anointing International Ministries for 35 years, guiding and nurturing countless lives. She was married to Eddie Lee Allen from 1952 to 1973, and together they raised three wonderful sons: Jeffery, Randall, and Everett Allen. Her second marriage to Clarence Randolph in 1978 brought forth another son, Prentice Randolph, and lasted until 2015. Inez's family was her greatest treasure, and her legacy lives on in her surviving sons, Jeffery, Everett, and Prentice; her beloved sister, Earnstine "Aunt Apple" Rosier; sister, Daisy Rosier Montgomery; and brother, David Rosier Jr. She was predeceased by her husbands, Eddie Lee Allen and Clarence Randolph; her sons, Leonard "Pee-Wee" Rosier and Randall "Randy" Allen; her brothers, George "GW" Rosier and Glen Rosier Sr.; and her sister, Panzy Rosier-Dillard. Inez was blessed with 20 grandchildren and 30 great-grandchildren who brought her immeasurable joy. Her love for her family was boundless, and her home was always filled with warmth, laughter, and the aroma of her delicious cooking. Inez was a woman of many talents. She found joy in singing, painting, and cooking, and she was an ardent fan of the Los Angeles Lakers. Her presence was magnetic; she had a soft-spoken voice and a singing voice that could only be described as heavenly. Her impeccable sense of style and grace made her a standout wherever she went. Family, friends, and all whose lives were touched by Inez are invited to celebrate her life at a service on November 7, 2026, at 10:30 a.m., held at Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church, located at 615 Tuskegee St., Tallahassee, FL 32305. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to be made in memory of Inez to a charity of your choice, reflecting her spirit of love and generosity. Inez Allen Randolph's legacy is one of love, faith, and beauty. Her memory will forever remain in our hearts, and her influence will be felt for generations to come.
