Rudi's passing

It is with a heavy heart that I have to report the passing of Rudi Sauracker this morning. His participation on the board has touched the lives of most of us from personal friendships to using the manuals that he lovingly assembled and maintained on his server.

He was a very good friend to me and we had some great times together. I have many Rudi stories that are a way of me remembering his unique sense of humor and vast knowledge of many different disciplines. I am sure that not many know he was a talented wordworker and cabinet maker among his many talents.

At this time I have no information on services and if I do get that information I will pass it on. Em has said that she will be getting a hold of me in the near future just to talk.

Thanks to all of you for having his family in your thought and prayers.

Rudi used to call and talk on the phone often. As time passed and his health failed those calls became more rare. Few people realize the amount of work and effort that Rudi put into the manual site. He was particular about his details. I will miss him for sure.
 
That's very sad to hear. Rudi helped me so much not only through this forum but off line as well. He was a good man, incredibly smart and generous with his time. He will be missed. Knowing he was a child and follower of Christ, I know his is now on an incredible adventure. I'll continue to pray for Em and the girls.
 
Sorry to hear about that, never had opportunity of chatting with him, everything I have read on this forum he was a very special person, my thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends
 
Cecil, Thank you for bringing this to our collective attention.
Rudi's enthusiasm for life and perseverance in the midst of seemingly neverending trials of his own or his family set a high bar for all of us.
He will be sorely missed.
Emilie - my condolences on the loss of your husband.

Peter (and family)
 
I never had the privilege of meeting or talking to Rudi, but I feel like I lost a dear friend just from all the help I've gotten from the manuals and his posts. Please extend my heartfelt condolences to his family. John
 
Rest in Peace mon'ami!

Rudi was always one of the first to great a new member and had a welcome wagon of info for them.
I don't think he ever had a negative thing to say about anything or anyone.

Thank you Rudi !!
 
Tragic news. Vonla and I had the opportunity to visit with Rudi a few times over the years, and he was just what you'd expect--a loving and very genuine man who really valued his family and friends. The world would be a better place with more Rudi Sauerackers. Our sincerest condolences to Em and the family.

Always one of my favorite pictures of a great couple. Rudi, my little buddy, words cannot express my sorrow. Peace and love to you all forever.
