Gertrud Gilman

Gertrud (Trudy) Gilman, age 75, passed away on November 12, 2015, in St. George, Utah. She was born January 21, 1940, in Alsbach, Germany to Heinrich and Anna Becker. She married Glen October 23, 1958, in Darmstadt, Germany. She received her education in Germany including an apprenticeship as a hair dresser and continued to work when we first arrived in the Edmonds area of Washington. She lived in Edmonds for 13 years and then she and Glen returned to Germany for 15 years. This gave them time to travel much of Europe. They returned to Everett, Washington where they lived until Glen retired from Cascade Bank. At that time they moved to St. George where Trudy greatly enjoyed decorating her home and working in her yard among her flowers, she had a green thumb. She is survived by Glen; one sister, Heide Flath and a brother-in-law, Udo Dietz living in Rechlin, Germany. There are too many nieces, nephews and cousins to name here. Trudy is now at peace and has no more pain. Her smiling face will be greatly missed. There will be no service at her request, please remember her happy times.
