Betty C. Reno

Betty was born Nov. 14, 1933, in Escanaba, the daughter of Robert and Mary (Lasnoski) Trottier. Betty grew up and was a graduate of St. Joseph’s Catholic School in Escanaba, Michigan. On Sept. 11, 1954, Betty was united in marriage to Earl Reno, and together they made 63 years of wonderful memories. Betty worked for several years as the clerk for Northern Motor Company. She also was a Girl Scout Leader and was employed by the organization. She was a devoted parishioner of All Saints Catholic Church, a member of the Bishop Baraga Circle, and was a part of the Gladstone Golf Club’s Golden Girls League. Betty loved attending her grandchildren’s sporting events and activities, golfing, gardening, decorating and architecture, and spent many summers, all summer long, camping with her family. She will be deeply missed by so many.
