She certainly will not be forgotten. Both she, and husband Vince will remain my friends.

Trisha, it's hard to believe ten years have passes since you left us. You made a huge impact on all, like me, who met you through travelling on Roots on the Rails trips across Canada and the United States and attending Cowboy Poetry Festivals in Elko, Nevada. My life was enriched beyond measure for having met and shared so many adventures. Nothing I say can thank you enough for what you brought into my life and those memories will stay with me for ever.

She had no knee caps and a scar that ran through her eyebrows. Years ago, she learned how to walk again then dance. He spun her around the tiny floor of the mobile home on top of the mountain. The dining room table pushed to the wall. The music swung with laughter. Years passed. The house replaced the double wide and the dancing continued. The love. The laughter. The friends, the horses, the music, the rides, the wine. Today, the redwoods sough in the sinuous silence. High above the mountain a hawk calls. Goodbye, Trisha. Goodbye Vince.

Pedroia family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. Be assured Vince met Trish with open arms when she stepped off the train for their first dance at heavens gate. I met Vince when we started scanning his clients pets and met Trish shortly after. They were soulmates thru thick and thin and thin. Keep their memories close to your hearts.

This world and I will be missing an amazing human being. So glad to have shared a part of Trisha's life.

I was stopped in my tracks
When I heard you were gone
I always thought,
"There'll be another smile"
"There'll be another song"
And I suppose there will be
But everything is changed
For without you in our world
Nothing is the same.
See you on the heavenly train,

Even though we were both married into the Pedroia family I didn't know Trish as well as I could have but I knew that she was loved and respected in her community and that she and Vince had a mutual love and respect for each other. She took Vince's death and continued to pursue the things that were important to both of them and I personally feel you honor your loved ones by living well. To the Pedroia family I am sorry for the loss of another loved one, I know you are still dealing with the loss of Vince and this is one less connection. My last visit to Vince he asked me to give a little wave in his direction on the new bridges I crossed in my life and each step I think of him. So, to Trish on your new journey I send a wave to you and Vince.
Always, Rose

Trisha, I am so very grateful to have had the chance to know you in this life. Your ability to live each moment to the fullest sets a beautiful example for the rest of us. I hope I find you again so we have a chance to ride the great horses in the sky. Blessed be my friend. You are sorely missed by us all.

Trish,
I hope the road I'm on will meet yours someday. For 35 years, you contributed so much to me and everyone you met. In various gatherings we all inquired about our latest experience with you. You were a part of so many people's lives - you were that special connection. You touched us in a gentle quiet way. You were the ultimate friend.

Trisha was one of the finest people who has ever dropped into my life -- radiating joy and enthusiasm to all those around her. She embraced every moment and every experience offered to her,even the tough ones, which is a lesson we should all take to heart. A woman of exquisite taste, I also recall her delight in being introduced to the best street vendor hot dog in Toronto -- such a grin, scarfing down a bun full of mystery meat!! Our "train family" has lost a vital member of the clan, and we all send our love and warm thoughts to her family and friends.

Trisha,
On a clear night, when there's a billion stars, I'll look up and see your smile.

Trisha,
I didn't know you well or for long, but I'm grateful for the short while that our lives intersected. I hope that during your lifetime you knew just how well loved you were by so many and how much you'll be missed by them.

Trisha, Vince and Family,
I will always carry in my memory the image of You and Vince at the Sonoma County Fair on Farmer's Day together each wearing a well worn straw hat. That memory of you both has always stayed in my mind as the example of possibility...What a true relationship can be. Each fully realized individuals, both united as a couple. Peace to you both and your family at this time. May beautiful memories be the inspiration that lives on and guides others and perhaps softens the loss of you both, for those left behind too soon.

Trisha, you were such a bright light in our family of train travel and music lovers and will be greatly missed. You enriched our lives and it was a joy to have known you.

Trisha, I will never forget the strength you carried when Vince passed away...it amazed me. I will always remember walking the track with you at Relay for Life. You will always be loved and remembered

Trisha, some of the happiest times of my life were spent in your company, against a backdrop of trains, polar bears, open sea, poetry and fabulous music. Thank you for the gift of your friendship. I will never forget you.
