I enjoyed biking with you Rudy. You have left us way too soon.
To say I am shocked about Rudy's passing would be the understatement of the year. Not only did I graduate with him but we also worked at the New Haven Hall's together in high school. He would always make me laugh and he could brighten everyone's day just by walking into the room. My deepest heartfelt sympathies go out to his entire family and friends. Rest in Heaven Rudy. I'll always remember the good times. Love you my friend.
