Such a wonderful lady. I have so many fond memories of Trudy. She was like my work mom. Took me under her wing for so many things..when I was a new nurse, a new bride and a new mom. She was always smiling. Thank you Trudy for all the laughs and the caring. Fly high with the angels. Praying for peace and strength for her family.
