Patsy, I was sorry and surprised to read about Trudy’s death. I didn’t know her well but remember her as kind and funny. It must be hard to lose a sister. With love, Janelle Fallan

So sorry to hear of your loss. Trudy worked with us at Capital Hill Barber Shop and Styling Salon and there was never a dull moment. She used to come up to me and kiss me and thank me for hiring her. I told her if she didn’t quit that, I was going to get something to hit her with. In typical Trudy fashion, she showed up the next day with a new, clean, purple fly swatter! Can’t tell you how often she made us laugh. What a gift!

I was shocked to hear of her passing. I worked with her for over 5 years. Although had known her for 16 years. I often thought of her as a second mom. She was there to offer advice and support. I will miss her and her quirky ways. So sorry for your families loss as she will be a loss to many here.
