Gertrude Marie Davies

It is with deep sadness and endless love that we mourn the loss of our beloved mom, who passed away March 18, 2023, at the age of 90.

Trudy was born September 29, 1932 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. While working for the Winnipeg School Board, mom met the love of her life, Ray, and they got married on September 24, 1955. Ray and Trudy spent many glorious years on the family farm in Otterburne where they raised their children Elaine, John and Harry. Trudy was a devoted wife, mother, sister, grandmother, aunty and friend who was loved deeply. She was a beautiful soul, who left an immeasurable impression on everyone she met.

Trudy is survived by her daughter Elaine Askin (Ray); sons John Davies, Harry Davies (Patty); grandchildren Jeff (Jennifer), Lindsay (Bryce), Chase, Meagan (Dom), Cole, Reed; great-grandchildren Brody, Rory, Sadie, Nora, Thomas, Logan, Lily; sister Alma (George); brother Herb (Ena); sister-in-law Bernice, and numerous nieces and nephews.

Trudy was predeceased by Ray, her husband of 41 years; parents Fred & Minnie Bessler; sister Eleanor Bessler and brother-in-law Charlie Davies.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00pm on Wednesday, March 29, 2023 at Thomson “In the Park” Funeral Home, 1291 McGillivray Blvd, Winnipeg, MB, with Reverend Patrick Woodbeck officiating.
