Prudy was a phenomenal seamstress and loved gardening, but she was best known for her big heart, kindness, laughter, and the joy she brought to her family and friends. There was never a dull moment when Prudy was near as she had the best sense of humor and shined brightly in whatever room she entered. This special person will be dearly missed by all and the memories of the fun times with Prudy will always be cherished.
