dear rita, we, my mom ruth juarez, myself, and eddie were so sorry to hear of rudy's passing. we had our own 'little' funeral for rudy. at our juarez house growing up we fondly remembered rudy, as 'rudy ka-zoody', because he was always so very friendly to us children. kids like things to rhyme so he was always rudy ka-zoody the tv man. then we always had him and mary at church and later see them with your aunt at breakfast. we have good stories to remember him and your dear mom. My mom ruth went to school with your dad and also has vivid and good memories. we could not attend the funeral as eddie and i were out of town and mom did not read the obits while we were gone. god bless you rita and please keep in touch. we are only a phone away. and just a 25 min. drive from cal pk. eddie, toni byrnes and ruth juarez
