To my Uncle Rudy,
You were always my favorite and my Godfather from birth!  I used to love childhood visits…so exciting and special. After college, when I worked in Miami, you would regularly surprise me at work. We’d have lunch or just chat…precious time together!  Family get togethers at mom’s house were another favorite. Always full of love and laughs.   Family was everything to her and she was the happiest when surrounded by her three brothers!  I loved hearing stories of your early years in Bensonhurst…both the joys and struggles. Then there were the times you would “run away” to mom’s house when you needed a retreat. She was always waiting with open arms and a home cooked meal. You were her cherished little brother and she was your safe place to land. She was the glue for the family and after losing her, our visits were more rare. But you always had a special place in my heart. And it makes me happy to believe that the original four are once again reunited. Mom is probably cooking eggplant and you’re all holding hands and laughing around the table. La Famiglia! 💜
