Truda grew up in New Site community and attended New Site School. She was raised in a close family and was the oldest member, and a lifelong member, of Siloam Methodist Church. She loved the dinners on the ground, revivals, and being with loved ones. At a young age, she married the love of her life, Randle Stacy. She was devoted to him for 64 years and with him created a happy home. Jesus created a beauty when he created Mother. The Spirit shined his love right through her. She loved her home being filled with the joy of children and grands, cooking delicious meals, and making everyone’s favorites, especially her banana pudding. Mother sewed beautifully for us, and enjoyed watching the Atlanta Braves. Having a beautiful voice, she loved to sing, especially gospel songs from her childhood. Her love was the strength of our family, always with a listening and compassionate ear and unconditional love for anyone struggling. She rejoiced over our victories.

Love is our Mother’s legacy.
