My condolences to the family. Trudy was the sweetest lady. My grandmother worked for her for many years. Tules, is what my grandmother would call her. I remember the many days of being at the ranch. Christmas and Easter were the best times.. gingerbread houses ... The smell of the home... Flowers in the garden...I miss those days.. Family. Lisa and Marcus your family will always live in my heart. My most heartfelt condolences.

Lisa and Marcus,
So sorry to hear of your mom's passing. I pray that God will give you comfort during this time.
I have many memories of your mom from the early West Palms Swim Club and McAllen Swim Club days. Your mom was always so gracious to give my brother and me rides with Fred to and from swim club practice, and for that we will always be thankful. To make those trips to and from swim practice even more special, she would buy Tasty Kreme donuts for us all to munch on during the ride home! She didn't have to do that, but that's just the kind of person she was!
Your mom was an amazingly beautiful and strong woman and captured the very essence of "class"! She will be missed by many. May she rest in peace.
