I will miss my brother-in-law Rudy. He was always good for stimulating conversation especially regarding politics. He was the life of the party when the family got together. May God Bless and Keep You In His Care.

I recall, I must have been about 6 years old, Uncle Rudy took us to a theme park. He sat behind me on the water ride. I recall him laughing quietly the whole way! I also remember how happy he was to show me his homegrown tomatoes. We shall miss you dear Uncle Rudy.
