To the Rudolph L. Wise Family & Friends,
My Deepest Sympathies on your loss & he will be missed by many. I have very fond memories of Rudy from the perspective as a employee of his family owned business/ company-" Wise El Santo" for 33 years.That great company was Est. in 1892 and is still to this day very much a major factor in the Safety Equipment Industry . Rudy's guidance & the opportunities by working for him affected me in that they helped me achieve important goals. Because of Rudy & Wise El Santo i was able to raise & educate my two girls they way I wanted to, so a "TIP MY HAT TO YOU" -Sir!
Rudy was also a Veteran of WWII,as i remember him relating different events when he felt like talking about it and just like many prior & since ,I Salute all for your service on our behalf.

Farewell to you Mr.Rudy Wise
