Gertrude Boettcher
December 8, 1933 — June 26, 2024
On June 26th, 2024 the sun rose and welcomed Trudy into heaven. Her room illuminated into a warm, rose colored glow. Trudy was finally at peace. With her children at her side, Glen (Margaret) Boettcher, Gayle (Steve) MacDonald, she went home. Trudy was 90.
Trudy was preceded in death by her husband of 69 years, Gerald Boettcher. Together they owned and operated “Trudy’s” drive-in in West Allis, Wisconsin for over 30 years before retiring to Horn Lake in Townsend
,
Wisconsin.
She dedicated much of her time taking care of her aunts, uncles and mother. Trudy was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and friend to many.
She was also a fabulous cook and host. Above all she loved her family; grandchildren Tommy and Tyler Powers, Lucas (Meg) Boettcher, Anna (Mike) Boedeker, great grand-children Penelope and Elle Boedeker, Jerry Powers, and baby Theodore Boettcher.
Everyone loved Trudy, she will be missed!
