Gertrude Garcia Obituary
1930-2021
Trudy left her loved ones in the early hours of a cold morning on October 28th to enter the kingdom of heaven. She was a unique individual. Trudy was an artist, who worked in various mediums, mainly oil paintings. In addition she was an excellent story-teller, with a boundless imagination. In her teenage years, she designed and made her own clothes, as well as her younger sister's clothes, eventually becoming an accomplished seamstress. Later in life, she became a manicurist/barber in her husband's shop. Trudy was artistic in all of her endeavors. She is gone but not forgotten for she will live on in our memories.
She is survived by her sister: Katie Rojas Wood, daughters: Estella Garcia Bologna, Ellen Marie Garcia, son-in-law: John Bologna, son: Michael Garcia, many grandchildren, cousins, nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband of many years Hector Homer Garcia, Mother Herminia Garza Rojas, son: Frank Thomas Garcia, brothers: Alphonso, Richard, Raul Espinor, and sisters: Otilia Rojas and Virginia Cabello. For funeral arrangements call Forest Park Lawndale Funeral Home 713-928-5141.

Trudy played a great role in the forming of my character growing up. I looked up to her and emulated her in every possible way. She was very religious and had a beautiful voice. She inspired me to in many endeavors. She will live on in my memories.
