    Rudy was in my class of 1971. Had known his family for years. Hadnt saw Rudy for along time, but always remember him as a very fun guy, and was always smiling. Thought maybe this year he might be at class reunion.guess that goes to show you that you never know how much time you have left and to enjoy family and friends.
