February 20, 1957 - May 29, 2024

Trudy Ireland, age 67, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, passed away peacefully on May 29th, 2024, surrounded by her loving family. She was born in Abilene, Texas, on February 20, 1957, and spent her early years moving between Texas, California, and Oklahoma.

Trudy was a true outdoors enthusiast from a young age. She cherished her childhood horse, Comanche, and spent countless hours riding and enjoying nature. Her love for the great outdoors was integral to her vibrant life.

Trudy's journey into fitness began in her 20s, and she quickly became a celebrated bodybuilder. Her dedication to weight training and fitness was unparalleled, earning her numerous titles and accolades throughout her career. She found immense joy and fulfillment in the gym.

Trudy was also an expert traveler, exploring destinations all over the world. Her adventures took her to many beautiful places, always appreciating the tranquility and beauty of nature.

She was a devoted mother to her two sons, Casey and Colin, whom she had with her first husband, Pete. Above all else, Trudy cherished her family, always putting them first and making time for them amidst all her endeavors. She was also a proud grandmother to three grandchildren, Margot, Conrad, and Norah. Trudy loved her community and the people in her "village," always extending her warmth and kindness to those around her.

Trudy is survived by her husband, Hans Goldfuss; her sons, Casey and Colin Kline; her grandchildren, Margot, Conrad, and Norah; and her siblings, Mike Ireland, Tricia Wallis, and Cyndi Harris. She is remembered as a loving mother, sister, wife, and grandmother, and a true inspiration to all who knew her.

I met Trudy sometime in the late 1980s and she was a beast! Trudy stayed true to her passion (bodybuilding) and she never looked back. Trudy looked the part, and she lived the life. Always approachable and so, so, so, nice.

Thinking of Aunt Trudy, sending sincere condolences to Casey & Colin & all who knew and loved her. She was fun, welcoming, chill and kind. She taught me how to text on my flip phone at Thanksgiving or Christmas at Grama Gene and Perry's house in Ark City around 2005?! She will be missed.
Love, Melissa (Missy) Lacey

I met Trudy many years ago through our love of bodybuilding. She instantly became a cherished friend and someone I looked forward to seeing at competitions and other events in the sport. I´m saddened to learn of her passing, and my thoughts and prayers are with her family. She was truly a bright spark in life, and one who will be missed. Rest well my friend.

Trudy always had a smile on her face. She was an inspiration to so many. I would always tease her about her getting my dream car (4-runner) I first met her at Sky Fitness and then got to know her even better when I worked at Genesis health clubs Woodland Hills. She will definitely be missed!

Trudy was one of my FAVORITE members to see walk through Genesis´s doors. She was full of knowledge, love and inspiration. I looked forward to hearing her travel stories and she also talked to me about horses when she knew I was running for a rodeo pageant. She was a TRULY fantastic person... I love her dearly and her legacy with go on forever.

This is so deeply saddening. She was such a light. I managed the Genesis she would frequent and it always made my day when she´d stop and chat. She was such an inspiration. Her legacy will live on and on. Thank you for sharing Trudy with us. She will be deeply missed. I know it´s not a lot coming from a stranger but if y´all need anything please please don´t hesitate.
She was just simply the best

Trudy was my first friend at the gym and made it a very welcoming place for me. I was a fitness influencer when we met and we shared many conversations about bodybuilding. She was an incredible friend and we shared quite a few laughs in the short time I knew her.
