To the Family of Trudy Jannie Monroe. Our Prayers and Deepest Sympathy go out to you all in your time of sorrow. Trudy had such a pretty smile and her eyes sparkled when she spoke of her children and grandchildren. She was a Wonderful Mother/Grandmother and friend to all she met.

Tr'ElShawn, Mo'Lani---Because you saw and heard "MIMI"s voice everyday so this is especially for you two.

My family and I send our deepest condolences, love and lift up prayers to Tr"Ellis & "My" Girls and Ellis Jr and His Family. I'm going to really my "BEST FRIEND". We go way back as early as before our children. We have worked together over the years at UMC and private duty Caregivers. It has been a rough week and it really seems like a bad dream to me. I'll remember her "smile" and "giving and gracious heart" and many hours of sitting and sharing with one another. Again, my family sends their prayers and offer their deepest condolences to you all in your time of need. She'll be missed, but never forgotten. Her memories will lie in all of our hearts forever. I'll see you some day "My Friend"!

Just want to say to the family. It was my honor & pleasure of knowing Trudy Monroe all of my young life there in Centralia. A joy in knowing her, her brothers, and parents. We thank the Lord for having had Trudy in our life as a friend, but now we know that she is resting in a much better place.
Good night Trudy, we'll see you in that great day to come.
