I know Trudy will be missed. She was a good friend at a time when I truly needed one. She was sweet and funny with a heart as good as gold. I can still hear her saying, Go head Red, girl you crazy, with that contagious laugh. Rest In Peace sweet friend until we meet again.
My condolences to her family.

Dear family,
My heart aches from the grief that you are feeling.
Knowing of God’s embracing love for you, continue looking to him when ” He will wipe all tears from our eyes, death, pain, and suffering will be no more. ” – Revelation 21:3,4
He says death is an ” enemy that will be brought to nothing. ” – 1 Corinthians 15:26
It comforts our hearts to know this pain will be a thing of the past and through Christ a resurrection for our loved ones.
We ” do not sorrow just as those who have no hope! ” – 1 Thessalonians 4:13
love from a stranger,
