Knowing she is at peace does not ease the sadness. My love goes out especially to Susan, Brian, Don, and all of the Rudolph family. I was blessed to know Mrs. Rudolph, most especially as a surrogate mom during our years at Albertus. My roommates and I were the beneficiaries of delicious baked goods (thus the apples!) and always Mrs. Rudolph's enduring smile that never failed to lighten my heart. Comfort comes from knowing she is in joyous, loving peace with her husband and son, Michael.

Mrs Rudolph was always there to be a great friend. She loved her family and her friends. She was a second mom to all of the Albertus girls and I was always included as a sidekick. Great Picture. May she RIP. Rae and I send our condolences to the Family.
