Dale, Kevin and Cindy and the rest of the family,
I don't have words fitting to describe what a great Lady Trudy was. She was a friend and a Mom to me for at least the last 25 years. I know she was the "glue" that held your family together and her love of our God was ever present in her daily life. Trudy was an inspiration to me personally as she lived her faith everyday. Hold on to the values she instilled in all of you.
May God grant you all the peace that only He can give. My prayers are with you all.
