Elizabeth “Betty” Ann Arvoy, 86, of Durand, passed away peacefully on Saturday, November 8, 2025 in Durand.
Born on June 20, 1939 in Flint, Michigan, Betty was the daughter of Frank and Mary Helen (Pobocik) Klapko. She graduated from Swartz Creek High School in 1957 and married Robert Frank Arvoy at St. Mary Queen of Angels Catholic Church in Swartz Creek on November 9, 1957, moving to Durand that year as well.
Over the years, Betty enjoyed bowling, gardening and most of all, spending time with her family. It was not uncommon to see her sitting on her front porch during the summer, watching the traffic go by and visiting with neighbors–a simple joy that reflected her friendly, kind and caring nature.
Betty never met a stranger. She was compassionate, a wonderful listener and deeply devoted to her family, her children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews. All of whom brought her great pride and joy
Betty is survived by her daughter: Debra Decker and husband Ralph; son Dale Arvoy and wife Cassandra; daughter in law, Shelly Arvoy. She was a proud grandmother to Jacob Arvoy, Alex Decker and his wife Jessica; and granddaughters, McKenzie Arvoy and Rachael Arvoy as well as several nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Robert Arvoy; her son Christopher Arvoy, her twin daughter Diane Arvoy and her grandson Drew Decker.
Funeral Mass will be held on Tuesday, November 11, 2025 at 11:00 am at St. Mary Queen of Angels Catholic Church, 4413 Morrish Road in Swartz Creek with Father Louis Ekka officiating. Visitation will begin at 10:00 am until time of Mass. Interment will follow in St. Mary’s Catholic Cemetery.
