I was so shocked and sorry to hear this news. Rudy was one of a kind and he will certainly be missed. Godspeed dear friend...

My condolences to the entire Ford family, I am sorry for the loss of your loved one. While I was a few years older than Rudy, we were in the same Sunday school class, long, long ago at Rising Mt. Zion. I think I would like to remember him that way.

Rest In Paradise Rudy.

I am shocked and saddened to hear of the passing of Rudy.  We worked together in Henrico for a number of years.  He was a fine man and a talented musician.  Now he is playing with the Angels.  Rest Well.

Sincerely,
Dr. Cynthia Owens Richardson
