To The Johnson Family,

It seems like only yesterday that we all gathered for worship at Mt. Calvary Baptist each Sunday. It was always a pleasure seeing Trudy's smile and although that is now physically gone her spirit will live forever. Wishing the family abundant strength and peace as Trudy will be missed by many. God Bless.

My deepest sympathy to the Johnson family. She will be greatly missed. I met Mr & Mrs. Johnson in 1985 in Westbury NY and the entire family embraced me as though I were part of their family. She always had the smile of confidence and she was always pleasant to me and my children. Ms. Trudy you will be greatly missed! I know you are in a much better place because the word of God says "to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." I will continue to pray for this family because I certainly feel your pain.
