This long-time Traverse City resident was thrilled to learn that her first great-grandchild was born in Grand Rapids in August of 2014. After 3 months of receiving photographs in the mail, Betty was finally able to meet this new addition to her family when four generations of women reunited in Traverse City last November. The four generations of women were: Betty's daughter, CJ Conder (aka Carla Routsong who was born in Munson Hospital and also raised in Traverse City), granddaughter Mackenna Morse, and great-granddaughter Mayla Joan Morse. The four celebrated their happy reunion with dinner at their favorite place, Sleder's, where Betty had her first date with late husband Gary Routsong over 60 years ago. The family also hired professional photographer, Colleen Losse of Creehan Photography, to capture this time together. Congratulations to Betty on becoming a Great-Grand-Nana!
