in loveing memory of
rodolph G Fratto sr.

we little knew that morning,
god was going to call your name,
in life we loved you dearly,
in death we do the same,
it broke our hearts to lose you,
you did not go alone,
for part of us went with you,
the day god called you home,
you left us beautiful memories,
your is still our guide,
and though we cannot see you,
you are always by our side,
our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same,
but as god calls us one by one,
the chan will link again.
i love you grampa.

I will always regard Rudy Senior with utter praise, for he was a "mans man!" I considered a privilege to have connected with him at the recent wedding of Billy III (and it was an honor to reminisce beautiful stories of our family’s common history).
May God’s blessings be with him and all of his loved ones. May Rudy rest very peacefully.
