All of you are in my thoughts and prayers , since hearing of the passing of "Bobby" Robert. Bobby, our cousin, kept his ties with the Rudolph family and all "the cousins" at the farm in Spring Grove, as his Mom and Dad, Bob and Virginia and sistat Pat did. He was very interested in the family geneology and very interested in what we were doing with our lives. Aunt Virginia was a cousin to my Dad, but more like a sister and they were at all family gatherings.
I wish I could be there tonite for you Pat, and my Mom sends her best too to you and the rest of the family. Last night a huge plant fire started just across the river from Mom's apartment and it is still burning, so we better stay around here tonight.
Sincerely,
cousin, Judy (Rudolph)Fortney,
Roy and Lorraine Rudolph's, daughter

Bob was a fixture in local Genoa politics for many years. I worked with him on several campaigns, some we won and some we didn't. He knew the local issues and the players and their agendas. When he was elected to the Genoa City Council, he was ready to go to work from the get-go. Bob was soft spoken and didn't use too many words but what he had to say was worth listening to. He was a good man and will be missed.

I was Bob's neighbor from the time he and Bobbie moved in. Many times he helped me with outdoor work and my vehicles. We had many conversations over the years, and I will miss him. He will be in my prayers.
