You are all in my prayers, I love you all.

Rudy was a man that made me laugh and cry. I loved hearing his voice and especially hearing him say "ack ack ack ack ack" for that is how he greeted me with every phone call. His way of saying AK. He was a man of great strength, a gentle man all the way to his soul. Rudy never thought of himself, always of Lena, Tony and Alyx. They were always first in everything. I miss him so much. But to know that I will see him again has given me hope. I love you Rudy.

Love,
Berni

A message from Michele {Beanabana}

Lena, Tony and Alyx,

I wanted to let you all know you are in my prayers at this difficult time. I love you all and I will always be here for you if you need an ear to listen or a shoulder to cry on. You all have a lot of strength and wisdom you have learned from Rudy, just remember all the love you have shared, know that he is watching over you until you all meet again.

Love,
Michele

Here is a poem from both Michele and I for you

His Journey

Don't think of him as gone away-
His journey's just begun,
Life holds so many facets-
This earth is only one.

Just think of him as resting
From the sorrows and the tears
In a place of comfort
Where there are no days and years.

Think of how he must be wishing
That we could know today
How nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away.

And think of him as living
In the hearts of those he touched
For nothing loved is ever lost-
And he was loved so much.
