Trudi Moshier's Obituary

Gertrude E. "Trudi" (Lang) Moshier, 94, passed away on March 1,2023, at Rose Haven Personal Care Home in Indiana, PA, where the personnel at Rose Haven had cared for her as though she was a member of their own families. She will be deeply missed by her own family and those who came to know her.

Trudi was the daughter of the late Michael and Margaretta (Herrmann) Lang, where she was born on November 2, 1928 in Flushing, Long Island, New York. She grew up in Flushing with her brother, Henry.

After high school, Trudi went to live in Germany and worked as a secretary for the U.S. Army, where she met and married her husband Bill in Viernheim, Germany. They spent the next 31 years together living on military bases in Italy and Germany, as well as in Connecticut and Pennsylvania. They eventually settled in Indiana, PA, where she worked as a secretary for the American Lung Association and St. Bernard's Catholic School.

Over her lifetime she taught religious classes to both children as well as adults who wanted to be a part of the Catholic Church. She loved her faith, which was the foundation of her life.

Trudi was a talented artist who enjoyed painting wildflowers when she was younger, and later in life sewed quilts that she shared with others and painted religious icons that can be found in churches around the world. She was also an avid gardener and enjoyed being outdoors planting flowers and vegetables in her gardens to share with others.

Trudi is survived by five children, three sons; Patrick Moshier, Kevin Moshier, and Bill (Donna) Moshier, and two daughters; Michele (Scott) Gibson, and Margaret (Ralph) Weeks. She also had thirteen grandchildren and nine great grandchildren.

In addition to her parents Trudi was preceded in death by her husband, MSgt William A. Moshier; five infant children; a brother, Henry Lang; and her daughters-in-law, Jane Moshier and Cathy Moshier.

The family will welcome friends on Monday, March 6, 2023, from 2-4 and 6-8 PM at the Bowser-Minich Funeral Home, Indiana. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Tuesday, March 7, 2023, at 10:00 AM in St. Bernard of Clairvaux Parish, Indiana with Father Richard N. Owens, OFM, CAP as Celebrant.
