Obituary of Bethann Currington-Leach
Bethann Trouten was born on November 16, 1954 in Monroe, Michigan. She was born from the union of William Trouten and the late Rose (Douglas) Maynard.
For many years, Bethann worked in housekeeping for Mercy Memorial Hospital, and somehow also found time to be self-employed as the owner of a local car wash. Not one to let the grass grow under her feet, she was a wealth of information; proud to be in the know before everyone else. Bethann married Leroy Leach and together they raised their blended family. She loved them all dearly and cherished the time she shared.
Bethann was a social butterfly with a very outgoing personality and easily made many friends. Among her favorite things to do were fishing, taking trips to the casino, and playing Bingo.
