Condolences for the family of “Rudolph “Rudy” Drnek”
I am more than sorry for your loss, Jimmy and Sylvia and family. I felt like Uncle Rudy was MY uncle, too. His instantly welcoming, friendly nature warmed my heart in his presence and has always meant a great deal to me. Really. He and Aunt Sylvia produced what is truly one of the kindest families that I have known. I will really miss him and am glad to have known him.
To all the Drnek family and our good friends.
We’re so sorry for your loss. No matter how “prepared” we think we may be, the passing of our loved ones is never easy…our deepest sympathies from both John and me.

Words can never say How sorry I feel. Just know you have many friends in this time of sorrow. I sure will miss the times I use to run over to their house on Bartlett (Sylvia was always talking to Jill). We had some great times with your parents. At least they will now be together forever.
