Although you were my uncle, I called you "grandpa" Rudy. Growing up, you were everything to us all. We all loved to be around you and also loved your favorite saying, "Yoooooo". I am fighting back tears thinking about it. I still can't believe you are gone. My heart is so heavy right now. Heaven has just opened its doors to an amazing Angel, and I know you will be watching down and protecting over us. I love you with all of my heart! Rest In Peace
