The Officers and Members of The Country Fire Authority, Wodonga Fire Brigade, are saddened by the passing of Trudi and wish that Gary and his family accept some of our memories of Trudi, that may in some way, soften their grief. While Gary was our Station Officer, Trudi was also active in the brigade through the Ladies Committee and other Brigade activities, as well raising a family and supporting Gary in his career.
VALE.
Beautiful memories of a special sister-in-law and aunty always there for us. Shared a lot of good, and bad, times together.

Dear Gary and family, our sincerest condolences on the loss of beautiful Trudi.
Love to you all from Don, Linda & Annette Bowers & Zara and families.
Dear Gary, Darron, Jason and family,
Our hearts are with you. We are so, so sorry.
Trudi was the warmth and the laughter in my childhood, and she shaped me more than she probably ever knew. Where Mum was the one keeping us in line, Trudi had a way of making you feel completely loved and accepted, just as you were. That meant everything to me growing up.
I feel so lucky that I got to spend time with Trudi last December. I will hold those memories close for the rest of my life.
She touched all of us deeply and we are all heartbroken. It is so hard being so far away right now and not being able to be there to say goodbye to her with you.
We will be thinking of you every moment.
All our love,
Steve, Olivia, Matilda and Brock

Trudy was the best grandma ever, even though we didn’t see her often, everytime we did it was a fun memory.
Love Felix
Dear Trudi and Gary,
We have so many fun memories of staying with you on the farm. We spent so long choosing our favourite magnets, smelling your jasmine oil diffuser until it made us dizzy, and visiting you at the beginning and end of any road trip. We will always remember your love of wine, party pies and a good conversation.
Love,
Michael and Mikayla
How proud would Trudi have been today. Gary you were a rock. Your words were so moving and your love for Trudi was endless.
To Darren and Jason, your words for your mum were heart wrenching. I cried along with you.
Our time with Trudi was too short. From our 5pm drinks to near midnight “see you at your place for the next happy hour”
to our one and only caravan to trip to Nariel, we will always treasure.
Just know that we are only a short distance away and would be happy to be of any support that you may need.
Much love,
Fiona and Bill
Sending our sincere condolences to Gary and family regarding the recent sad passing of Trudi.
She was a real lady and a wonderful nurse. She was kind, compassionate and caring. She was also very loyal,
had a wonderful sense of humour and was always great company.
Sincere Regards,
Tony and Kathy Coffey
Deepest sympathy to you Gary, your family and Megan and Ted.
Thinking of you all at this sad time. Your beautiful Trudi will be missed by so many.
The years of happy memories made with you Trudi will keep you in my heart.
The laughter, fun times, long chats, a few tears and may glasses of bubbles!!!
I’ve been blessed to have had you as a friend and will miss you dearly.
So very grateful we had the opportunity to say our last goodbyes.
Cheers, my friend. Lynne
There are friends you meet along the way
There are friends who disappear around the bend
There are friends you meet along the way and hope the journey never ends.
Trudi, your journey has ended but the friendship you showed us will never end.
Gary, we treasure your friendship also.
May you find peace
Margaret and Gordon Fisher, Orange, NSW
