William "Bill" James Rudolph, age 65, died of Wednesday, November 16, 2016, at his home in Shepherd, Texas, after a long struggle with poor health. Although he was born in New York, Bill often joked that he got to Texas as soon as he could. While Bill had many careers throughout his life, his true passion was teaching. He loved learning. Along with education, he valued his faith. Bill was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints for over 30 years. He enjoyed teaching Sunday school and attending sacrament meetings.
Bill loved his family. He was married to his best friend, Cheryl, for 34 years. He leaves behind his wife, Cheryl Rudolph, his children, James Rudolph, Jennifer Rudolph, John Rudolph, Kelly Rudolph, his daughter in law, Lauren Rudolph, and his granddaughter, Stella Rudolph. Bill is survived by his siblings, Ray Rudolph and wife Barbara, Ron Rudolph and wife Cindy, Adrian Cennamo and husband Danny, and Berni Davis, husband Daren. He is also survived by many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, and friends. Bill is preceded in death by his parents, Bill and Mickey Rudolph, as well as his nephew, Jeffrey Meekins.
The Rudolph Family is comforted by the knowledge of eternal families. They know that death is not the end and that they will be reunited as a family again. "The divine plan of happiness enables family relationship to be perpetuated beyond the grave. Sacred ordinances and covenants available in holy temples make it possible for individuals to return to the presence of God and for families to be united eternally." ~The Family: A Proclamation to the World from the First Presidency and Council of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
