Rudy, I will dearly miss you. I remember our 1stgrab bag at Best. You bought me Bath & Body Works and I knew it was probably your wife that picked it out!! Then I met Gina, and she is endearing.The year we went camping, and I met your whole family !! We had such a great time. I will miss you so much at work every day.I will never forget our friendship. The next time I drink a Blue Moon, I will be looking up Rudy at you!!! You are a great friend and you cherished your family! Miss you, Rudy..

I worked with Rudy for 3yrs. I sit right across from him. He kept me laughing. He really loved his family. He showed me pictures all the time. He was so proud of his little grandson. Each he had a Taekwondo match he would come back and show me the pictures. Not to how much he loved Gina. She was his heart an he let everyone know.. REST IN PEACE RUDY YOU WILL BE MISSED
