Trudy was a very generous and loving woman. I got to know her a bit more than as a shopper through a mutual friend. She will be missed. Condolences to her family.

Trudy gave so many women and men the opportunity to grow and learn thru employment. She was an outstanding mentor who taught professionalism and true customer service. I cherish my 4 years of employment at Trudy's and am so thankful to have had the opportunity to learn and grow as an individual under her wing. My deepest condolences to all that treasure Trudy as I do.

I have known Trudy since the early 80's. A very hard driven woman with a vision of greatness for all. I loved watching her interact with the customers and employees as if she was orchestrating a beautiful symphony. Her smile, caring and "honest" opinion was her trademark. I will miss her. She made this world a friendly place. Blessing to the family. ~Margarita Jimenez
