Trudy Ann Berry, age 82, passed away on August 15, 2019 of natural causes. She was born in Peabody, MA on November 25, 1936 to Josephine and Benjamin Podhaski. She lived at Omohundro Drive in Nashville, TN with her husband. Survived by her husband, Leonard Long, one sister, one brother, one son, and two grandchildren. Trudy enjoyed traveling to SoCA and Sanibel Island, loved animals, and loved nature. She had an amazing garden and rescued countless stray cats and dogs over the years who otherwise would have died. Trudy played competitive basketball into her 30’s, owned a wallpaper store in NY, and a landscaping company in TN. She was an avid reader and was well versed in many topics. In 2009, Trudy retired from the State of TN as a Director of Staff Development. She was a loving mother and a take charge person who taught me how to be a confident, strong, and self reliant man - Thanks Mom! No services are planned. A charity is being set up in her name for an animal rescue in Los Angeles, CA. Please send all donations to P.O. Box 382, San Dimas, CA 91773.
