I had the priviledge and pleasure of knowing and singing with Rudy for 33 years, each time our sister UCC churches sang together. And I was always greeted with smiles, hugs and a chance to laugh together in addition to the joy of singing which we both loved. I will truly miss him and I'm so very glad that I had the chance to know him and call him my friend. My heart goes out to all his family as well as his church family and my fellow choir singer children of his who carry on his happiness, love and voice - Rudy Jr., Mica and Dierdre.
