Rudis put so much joy and sunshine into so many lives!! My prayers are with her family that she loved so dearly and to other friends that will hurt as I do with her loss…… Until we are together again.. love you sweet friend!
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Mrs. Wilson was a wonderful neighbor and will be missed.
Everyone in our neighborhood loved Rudis and was in constant awe of her energy and enthusiasm. We loved her and will miss her. I always told her that “she was my hero”. Of course, I always got a big hug for that. God’s peace be with you.
It was with great sadness to hear of the passing of this great lady, but know she is now home. One of the joys of our lives, as leaders of the Circle of Friends ministry at Hebron, was working with Rudis, as she made it special to part of the group. Our memories of her on our cruise to Alaska, and the other fun social events, trips, and quiet times together, was and is a highlight of our service to these ladies.
May God grant His special comfort to all her family..and so many friends….we will all miss her.
Rudis was my role model; What a wonderful spirit, joyful and loving.

Our thoughts are with her beautiful family who she loved so completely.
Her hugs, smiles and happiness will be how I will alwaysI remember her.
Peace and comfort to you, her family and friends,

We were so blessed to be neighbors and friends with Rudis (and Guy) when we moved to our neighborhood many years ago. Rudis was aways so interested in our family and especially loved it when we brought our grandkids over to visit. We will miss her so much but know she is now at peace and with her “Guy” once again. To the family, may all your memories bring you peace and comfort at this time.
Sending a little note to Rudi’s family and close friends. I have and will continue to say and send prayers to each of you. She was such a special kind “southern” lady. I will never forget when I first meet her. We were at a large gathering and I was new to the group. She introduced herself and took me “under her wing” We of course became friends instantly. She just loved and adored her family and husband. I know God has a special place for her
Rudis never met a stranger. She was so special to everyone. She was such an important part of the Joy Class. I have many fond memories of the fun times we had. She made us feel like part of her family. She was a lovely and caring person who always had a smile. I will miss her very much. Love Betty
