Predeceased by her parents, Gertrude and Hugh Roarke and sisters Janet Bouley and Jo Ann (Madeleva) Roarke.

Trudy was born in Buffalo where she graduated from Holy Angels Academy and Bryant & Stratton College. Trudy was a past-recipient of the Volunteer of the Year award at the Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural National Historic Site, where she enjoyed many years working with dear friends. In addition to her many interests, Trudy was an avid quilter. Her love of sewing was apparent in the clothes and quilts that she made for her children and grandchildren.

The family thanks all the wonderful staff at Brothers of Mercy Sacred Heart Home and Brothers of Mercy Rehab for their loving and compassionate care. No prior Visitation.
