Ted and family, my deepest sympathies to you in the loss of your Dad. What a wonderful man he was and he will be missed by many. Pat Rucker Head

Mr. Dudley was a founding father of the Naples Branch of The English-Speaking Union,a beacon of light during his years of serving faithfully on the Board of Directors, and he was loved and respected by all. We will miss him dearly.

Paul and I are in Ireland, but saw the news about Bunny. We are both sad to lose such a fun-loving and wonderful man. Our prayers are with his family now.
