Trudy Lucero
September 16, 1936 - April 7, 2013

"Trudy" Gertrude Placida (Valerio) Lucero, surrounded by her loving family at home, was called Home with her Savior Jesus Christ early Sunday, April 7th, 2013.

Trudy was born September 16th, 1936 in Bondad, Colorado and grew up in Utah. Trudy married "Jesse" Juan Jesus Lucero in 1955 and moved with him to France where he was stationed in the U.S. Army.

After returning to the States, Trudy and Jesse settled in Aberdeen, Idaho where they raised their six children: Jesse, Christino, Veronica, Carmelita, Patricia and Juan.

Her love of God was the cornerstone of her life and lived according to the verse, Psalm 118:24, This is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it. Trudy dedicated her life to serving others.

As the Aberdeen School District Migrant Home School Coordinator for 22 years, she helped migrant families settle into the community.

In her retirement, Trudy stayed busy selling Avon, serving on the Board of Directors for the Fairview Estates Assisted Living, praising God at Calvary Chapel in Aberdeen. She loved to spend time with family, garden, birdwatch, and read. Trudy's faith and generosity radiated to all who knew her and will be deeply missed by her family.

Trudy was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Jesse; her parents: Juanita and Crestino Valerio; brothers: Crestino and David Valerio; sister, Gloria Romero; all of Utah; and great-granddaughter Mariah Lucero.

She is survived by her children, Jesse (Yolanda) Lucero, of Ogden, UT, Christino Lucero, of Pocatello, Veronica (Eddie) McArthur, Carmelita (Asnoldo) Benitez, and Patricia (Mitch) Barker, all of CO, and Juan (Jessica) Lucero, of Pocatello; her sisters: Sally (Manual) Rodriguez, Juanita (Don) Petit, Linda Castonia, all of WA, Carol (Eli) Renteria and Irene Trujillo; her brothers: Tony (Carla) Valerio, Joe Valerio, Tom (Jodi) Valerio, and sister-in law, Lucy Valerio, all of UT; other beloved family members Ed, Judy, Duby, Cory, Cindy and others; 18 grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren, and many beloved nieces and nephews.
