Betty McKenzie

Betty Jane Arsenault, better known as Betty Jane McKenzie, passed away peacefully early Christmas Eve morning at Granvue Medical Care Facility. Betty lived a beautiful 90 years and was ready to be with Lou, better known as Louie McKenzie.

Betty Jane grew up in Detroit where she met Louie McKenzie. She enjoyed bowling, bingo, playing cards, and being with her family.

Betty is survived by her five children, Diane (Dan) Trowbridge, Dan (Lori) McKenzie, Dawn (Chuck) Mahoney, Dana Dickson, David (Maria) McKenzie; her ten grandchildren; and her six great-grandchildren.

Betty was witty, fun loving, full of one-liners, smart remarks, and wise words. She instilled in her family that time was precious, money wasn't anything, and family was everything. Although her family has lost their Betty Jane, Louie finally has his best friend, loving wife, and soul mate back in his arms again.

Betty's funeral will be 10:00 am, Saturday, December 31, 2016, at Saint Mary's Church in Charlevoix. Visitation will be from 4-7:00 pm, Friday, at the Winchester Funeral Home in Charlevoix where the Rosary will be recited at 6:30 pm.
