In Loving Memory of Gertrude (Trudy) Elenor Thomaset (Bowler), 82 years, who passed away peacefully on Wednesday, December 11, 2024 at Extendicare York, Sudbury.
Daughter of Dorothy Thomaset (Jankovic), and Anton Jankovic, both predeceased. Sister of Alexandra Bennison of Cranbrook, British Columbia. Trudy married Josef Udovic (predeceased) in 1967, and later married her husband of many years, Lionel Leblanc (predeceased). Loving mother to Andrew Udovic (Shannon), Gabriella Desjardins (Guy), and Alex Lingard (Laura).
Grandmother to Jodi, Christine, Joshua, and Emily. Great-Grandmother to Darnel, Jordan, Ian, Kaddy, Elizabeth, Sienna, and Grace. Loving Aunt to April and Sean. She will also be missed by many special friends far and wide.
Trudy was born in Innsbruck, Austria and came to Canada with her family when she was 10 years old, and settled in the Donovan. She worked at Steve's Lunch and her parent's restaurant on Montague Street in Sudbury. Throughout the 1960's, Trudy worked for CKSO Radio. Once her children were born, Trudy was a proud stay-at-home mom, and fabulous cook like her father. Trudy's passion was the love she had for her family. She enjoyed decorating homes, and entertaining friends and family. Trudy practised her religion and faith customarily. She was also a big Sports fan, and enjoyed watching many games, especially hockey with her family.
Until we meet again, Our Beautiful Mom.
The family would like to extend an immense thank you to the staff at Extendicare York whose compassion and care for Trudy was greatly appreciated.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
With deepest sympathy, sorry for your loss of your beloved mother.
