Kary was born on April 10, 1946 to Tony and Betty Nicoletti of Butterfield Canyon, Utah. She was raised on a goat ranch where her family was well known for making wonderful European cheeses. In 1964 Kary graduated from Bingham High School and married Andy Johnson in the fall that same year. Andy and Kary had 5 children and were married for 12 years. In 1976 Kary moved to the Heber Valley area and ran the Prairie Cafe in Charleston, Utah. She met Warren Fitzgerald there in 1980 and the two were married.

In 2013 Kary and Jerry made their final move to Wendover, Utah where she lived out the remainder of her life in the small town atmosphere that she preferred. Kary never met a stranger. She was always warm and friendly to everyone she met. She was known for her cooking and hospitality and carried on a long family tradition of Italian Sunday dinners where everyone was welcome!
