Rudi - may he rest in peace - was my grandpa's brother. As I live in Germany I only met him once when I was a little child. I remember him as a really nice uncle who played with me a lot. Even after my grandpa's death my parents used to keep in regular touch with him via letters and cards. They were wondering why they didn't get an answer to the last birthday and Christmas cards they wrote and why he couldn't be reached by phone calls. We all felt sorry when we read that he died over a year ago. If members of my American family wished to contact me, I would very much appreciate it.
