I just found about Rudy's passing and was shocked and saddened. Rudy was my classmate at the U of A. He was always kind and considerate : a friend to all! R.I.P. old friend
Condolences to the family. Though I was a young child, I have fond memories of Rudy and Marjorie and their boys, as our family lived across the street. My Mom (Wanda) worked for Rudy at the Pharmacy. I remember him as a very kind gentleman, 40 years later.
Sending sincere condolences to the entire Gettman family. I have fond memories working for Rudy. He was a kind and caring man. May the memories keep him close in your hearts. Adina and Marlene
Our sincerest condolences from the Beyer family. Rudy was always pleasant and most friendly to our family. His familiar face in the drug store is a childhood memory that many of us will never forget.
Rudy was most kind to us when we first moved to Coaldale, which we appreciated immensely. Our sincere sympathy to Marj, the boys, and their families. ~ Linda and Keith Flaman
Rudy was such a kind and gentle man. He was my first boss back in 1987 and he was willing to give a young pharmacy graduate a job right out of university. I worked for Rudy for 3 years and left to go travelling - don't regret the travelling, do regret the leaving. He was so good to work for. I will never forget Rudy and Marj and their kindness and caring.
