My best to the family. I did not know Rudy but he must have been an incredible man as marked by the legacy he made of his son Bob. The entire Saisi family have always been the nicest, kindest and caring people and which I am sure it is never told to them often enough. Thank you Rudy for making Papa Bo. Sorry I am unable to attend the services. Big hugs to all of you.
