Rudy, a candle is lit everyday for you, mom, and dad and it sits on my fireplace mantle with your pictures. It is starting to feel like holiday season with cooler breezes and leaves falling already.  Makes me think more of you, mom, dad, and Tio Richard.  I lost all of you, but not from my memory and heart.  Love is forever and transcends all boundaries.  Your sister, Patty

Hey Rudy, tomorrow is October 1st 2015, almost time for the fall season to begin, which will be time for the holiday season. You're so greatly missed. I talk to Donna every night and she talks about how much she misses you and how the house feels so empty without you. She wishes that she could have done things differently when you were sick. I told her that there was nothing that could have been done because you were already too sick. She visits you every day and she even bought your stone already. It is going to have yours and Donna's picture on the stone. She will have your Raider's and New York Yankees on it. We talk about you everyday to keep you alive and we pray for you, and Nick also prays for his Tio Rudy at his school!! Hope you listen to us. God Bless you!!

Love you  very much Rudy! Man I miss you so much Brother I have started my Raider and Yankee collection and I know you are proud of me! I think of you everyday all day and carry you everywhere I go!
