Read MoreI still think about Rudy all the time. He was a great guy and always will be missed.

Cathy, just found out about Rudy when Dave and Dee got their info on 2019 SEAL reunion. So sorry to hear he's gone. Still have wonderful memories from our days in those little apartments in Coronado. May all the happy memories and God's loving grace sustain you and your family as you must adjust to Rudy's absence. God bless. Sending hugs from Texas - your old friends, Donna and Tom Smith

Cathy,
So sorry for your loss. I met Rudy one time many years ago but he left a lasting impression with me of a funny, kind hearted, never meets a stranger, truly stand up guy! I learned of his passing from Margie Bellis last evening. She told me several great stories about Rudy. My prayers are with you and your family.
