Obituary for Betty J. Orrico

Betty J. Orrico, 87, of Kenosha, WI, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, May 25, 2021, at The Manor of Kenosha with granddaughters by her side.

Born on June 10, 1933, in Kenosha, WI, she was the daughter of the late Louis and Adeline (Principe) Orrico.

She was employed as the manager of apartment buildings for over 15 years. She enjoyed dancing and singing with her choral group and going to see musicals. Since returning home to Kenosha, she loved reconnecting with her cousins during “cousins’ breakfast”.

She was preceded in death by children, Richard Symonds and Marlene Cordero; son-in-law, Ron Cordero; sister, RoseMarie Fanucchi; and brothers-in-law Nilo Fanucchi and Tom Thornton.

A memorial gathering will be held on Saturday, May 29th, at Proko Funeral Home from 10:00 a.m. until the time of memorial service at 12:00 Noon. Interment will take place privately at St. James Cemetery.
