Debbie- Hugs to you on your mom's transition. I am glad you were there with her and wish you peace. You were such a support to her for so many years. -Laura

Debbie… Such good memories of your mom from her days at Brookdale. I had to stop playing cards with her because it was having such a negative effect on my self-confidence. Rest in Peace, Trudy. Bob Story

Dear Deb, While I never met your dear mother, I feel like I had the pleasure of knowing her through your sharing various interactions you had with her over the years that we have known one another. Thank you for posting such a wonderful tribute to Trudy, it helped me to deepen my appreciation of her of your mutual care and support of one another. Love, Kevin

What do you to a person who has been in your life since day one. All I can say is that I have soo many memories from holidays to shoveling snow to cards to the queen of the quick snark comeback. It has been an honor to be your godson, nephew neighbor and special friend.

My sister, Pat, and John B.introduced us to Trudy and Joe when we moved to Milw in 1965. I didn't know anyone there but Trudy made me feel at home. We had many fun card games! She was a wonderful, fun lady! Barb and Bill Leeman
