Rudolph "Little Rudy" Cruz

On August 3, 2016, Little Rudy took his last climb and went to be with his dad, Rudy Cruz Sr. who proceeded him in 2007. Little Rudy is survived by: his mother, Martina Cruz; his three sons: Chad Cruz, Kyle Cruz and Sean Cruz (and his fiancAC.e Jesse'Rose), his first grandchild Ezra Cruz, his three siblings: sister, Christina "Chrissie" and brother-in-law, Elvin Ortiz; sister, Justina and brother-in-law, Terrance Howell; brother, Raymond "Ray" and sister-in-law, Reina Cruz; his companion, Valerie Hoover; and the mother of his sons, Linda Cruz. He is also survived by many nephews, nieces, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Little Rudy was a happy-go-lucky soul and was quick to share the latest joke he had when he saw you. He held strong to his love for his family, friends and God. He was always quick to share what he had or what he was able to give. He never met a stranger and had the ability charm his way into the hearts of many. There will be a Celebration of Life Memorial on Saturday, August 13, 2016 at The Taft Church of Christ located at 305 S. 10th Street at 1:00 p.m. A private graveside burial will take place at a later date.
