The Maury County native was the son of the late Richard Trulove and Ethel Wright Trulove and a 1950 graduate of Columbia Central High School. Mr. Trulove loved fishing and was delighted when he was pictured with his prize catfish in THE DAILY HERALD. He also took great pride in a well-kept yard and automobile. He enjoyed fellowship with the Roundtable Group at Kathy's Restaurant, but his greatest joy was in his loving wife, children, and grandchildren. He was a long-time member of Highland Church of Christ.

Members of The Roundtable Group at Kathy's and his loving care-givers will serve as honorary pallbearers.
