FORT WORTH, Texas - March 2, 2021 - With sadness, the Renfro family and Renfro Foods, Inc. announces the loss and death of its CEO, Bill Renfro. Renfro, along with his brother, Jack Renfro, led the company, known for Mrs. Renfro's salsa, for more than 60 years.

Bill Renfro died at age 86 after a four year battle with liver cancer. He leaves behind his wife, Angela Renfro, four children, two stepchildren, fourteen grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, extended family, his brother and sister, many friends and generations of employees.

"We are heartbroken at the loss of my father - a cheerful businessman who represented our company well for decades," said Becky Renfro Borbolla, senior vice president. "Dad led this company as one half of its heart and soul, and his legacy will live on in all of us who will carry it forward."

"My grandparents started this company 80 years ago, but my Uncle Bill was a huge part of bringing Mrs. Renfro's into the modern age," said Doug Renfro, president. "We will miss him, and his wit and wisdom, dearly."

Renfro Foods will be making donations to three organizations close to Bill's heart and asks for others to do the same in lieu of flowers:

A future service will be held at White's Chapel United Methodist Church prior to burial at Bluebonnet Hills Funeral Home & Memorial Park.
