Trudi, you were the most amazing nurse, we never worked together, because we had a passion for our specialty. And you absolutely excelled at yours . You are amazing, I hope you rest in peace, sorry I am crying. You always inspired me to be the best I can be .I will never forget you

Oh Trudi. One of a kind Trudi.... My heart has been truly blessed to have known you. I absolutely loved working with you on 4bs when you were in charge on the weekends !!! Your encouragement and support during the early years of my nursing career will never be forgotten. I'm sure you seen Rachel's comment...about the clicking of the pens. I laughed so hard because I was a pen clicker and you never hesitated to tell me to stop. Lol. Oh the laughs we shared Trudi. I will forever cherish that last big hug we had most recently....
To family and friends I send my sincere condolences. You've lost someone very special in your life and I hope her memory brings you joy and ,that knowing she's at peace, has provided you some comfort.
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU TRUDES.
REST IN PEACE MY FRIEND

Trudles my love…I don’t know what I loved most about you!! What a wonderful problem to have! Was it your fiesty independence, your never ending clinical knowledge , your giggle or the way that you loved your friends so intensely? I don’t know…and I could never pick just one thing. I just know that my life was so much better with your presence. I selfishly want it to have been longer. Sending so much love to all of Trudi’s family and friends.

So very sorry to hear of Trud’s passing. I remembered her from high school when she lived at the bottom of the Marr road and I lived at the top. I used to see her quite a bit at the regional. My condolences to Trudy‘s family at this time.

Deepest Condolences to Sandra & Kelli! I had the absolute privilege of starting my career as Trudis half partner on Neuro. I was in such awe of her intelligence and we had a running joke when she'd tell me something and I'd have to confess "Trudi, I'm not that smart". My 1st memory of her was when I unknowingly clicked my pen and she whipped it down the units corridor, I didn't know what to think as I retrieved my pen. She sure corrected me of that behavior lol.
I'll never forget all the incredible memories we've shared including the many laughs especially on nights when we'd have tears of laughter. I was so blessed to have gotten to spend the last few months with Trudi and will remember her always. Until we meet again, my beautiful friend XOXO
