Richard "Rudy" Rudick passed away on July 11, 2022, at the age of 95, in his home in Spring Hill, Florida. Rudy served in the U. S. Navy during WWII and traveled through various ports of call before settling down in Key West, Florida in the early 1950's where he met the love of his life, Palmira Rudick.
Rudy was recognized as diligent worker, dedicated family man and an avid model airplane builder. Rudy's passion for building WWII model airplanes was known by many WWII aircraft enthusiasts who would travel to Key West to purchase his work. As a matter of fact, one of Rudy's models currently hangs in the Conch Flyer restaurant at the Key West Airport as a testament to his talent.
Rudy is survived by his son and daughter, Artemio (Kim) Rogel and Maria Spring, his grand, great grand and great, great grandchildren, Cari (Amado) Rodriguez, Michael Rodriguez, Ashley Rodriguez, Annabella Rodriguez, Maximus Rodriguez, Gerri delValle, Linda Adams, Richard (Lisa) Rogel, Carrie Howard, Adian Rogel, Maria (Chandler) Barnett, Chandler Barnett, Jr., Elicia Barnett, Kaysee Barnett, Amanda (Mark) Huff, James Elitzer Jr., Travis Huff and Ariana Huff.
Rudy will be honored on August 27, 2022, at Downing Funeral Home, Spring Hill, Florida. Visiting hours are from 2 - 4 pm. A graveside service for Rudy and Palmira's ashes is scheduled for 24 September 2022 at the Key West Cemetery.
