Trudy Faye Forga

December 26, 1962 — December 31, 2019

Trudy Faye Forga, age 57, of Glenwood, Arkansas went to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on Tuesday, December 31, 2019. She made her extraordinary debut into this world in Ashdown, Arkansas December 26, 1962, to her beloved parents, Truman Altenbaumer and Pat Altenbaumer. She married her high school sweetheart and the love of her life, James Daniel Forga on September 2, 1983, and created a life full of love and laughter. Trudy was a beautiful soul. She loved everyone and filled this world with joy. Everyone loved her back, perhaps the truest testament of the person that she was. The impact that she had will be lasting in so many lives. The weight of the loss will be felt greatly by those who were truly blessed to know her. The stories she would tell were unmatched and were always sure to bring nothing short of hysterical laughter. No one was really safe from one of her practical jokes. She was bigger than life and lived a full and blessed life. "A bible that is falling apart usually belongs to someone who isnt" - Charles Spurgeon Trudys bible was missing the front and back cover. She loved the Lord and we know where we will meet her again someday. The peace this knowledge brings is immeasurable. She left behind her most precious belongings, her family and her friends. Her husband, children, grandchildren, and family were her absolute life and she loved them more than any words written here could possibly express. She was our rock!
