It is with great sorrow that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Wife, Mom, Daughter, Sister, Niece, Auntie, Grandma, Cousin, Friend Trudy. Trudy was called to her eternal rest, on Wednesday, June 25th, 2025 at 2:50 pm at the Health Centre in Snow Lake, Manitoba, at the age of 42.
Trudy was born on Monday, February 7,1983 at 7:43 pm at St. Anthony’s Hospital in The Pas, Manitoba. She entered this world loved, from the first moment she was in her mother’s arms, Ruth felt like she knew her always, that she was just meant to be. She was a loving caring daughter/sister, she was a friend and at times a councillor to her mother and family. Trudy lived most of her life in Moose Lake, but lived in The Pas, Vancouver, Toronto and Winnipeg while attending high school. She had three children Kadence, Liam and late Babygirl Falyn, before meeting her forever person, Steve.
When Trudy was living in Winnipeg for a short time, Trudy was visiting her grandmother Edna who was in the hospital in Winnipeg. Grandma told her it was time to go home to Moose Lake because there was something good waiting for her. Not long after moving back home she met the love of her life Steve Jr.. They lived in Moose Lake for a while and married on April 20, 2013, on their Babyboy Dominic’s first birthday. Then they moved their family to Snow Lake to live their lives together.
Trudy enjoyed spending time with her family going fishing, going for nature walks, taking pictures along her adventures. Especially different kinds of flowers. Her and Steve also enjoyed going shopping out of town together because these times, were the rare quality times with each other in their busy lives. Trudy also loved spending time with her koochichim Mila and took every opportunity to babysit her.
