Rudolf KUBELA Obituary
January 6, 1934 - May 9, 2012
Ph. D., P. Eng.
Scientist, chemist, engineer, mentor and inventor: loving and beloved father, grandfather and great-grandfather. A man of great strength, intensity, creativity and exceptional intelligence, Rudi was born in Kosice, Czechoslovakia on January 6, 1934, surviving both the Second World War and Communism. Arriving in Canada in 1965 and starting from scratch, he built a remarkable and fulfilling life for himself and his family. With his pure white hair and piercing blue eyes, Rudi was brilliant, distinguished and larger than life. He was the consummate host, a lover of good wine and one of the two-percent. He loved life and hated laziness, living and working with passion, fire and unbridled energy. He fought his illness as he lived - with strength, bravery, courage and humour. Respected, admired, accomplished, adored and deeply loved, Rudi was a proud and honourable man whom we are all proud and honoured to know. Survived by his wife Katarina, his children Karol (Edita) and Caroline (and Mark), loving grandchildren Karolina (and Robert), Tomas, Samuel, Jacob, Charlotte and Katarina. Great-grandfather to Isabella. Memorial Service to be held at Kopriva Taylor Community Funeral Home, 64 Lakeshore Rd. W., Oakville (one block east of Kerr St., 905- 844-2600) 2 p.m., Thursday May 17, 2012. Condolences may be made through www.koprivataylor.com
