I'm very sad right now but I know your where you need to be. Mr. Rudd is one of the great fathers I know and husband and great friend. If you needed anything at anytime he was the man to call. He love all people and truly loved his family. I said a few weeks ago I need to stop by. I upset with myself cause we think time is always there. Well that my fault. My condolences to the family I will be there in your time of need. Sincerely henry Dennis Adam's and family.

You told me I was doing a great job with her and never force her to do anything. You told me when she was ready and comfortable. She would do it! Sure thing she began going up all by herself saying her bible verses loud and proud ❀️
