He golfed as a member at the Niakwa and Wildewood clubs, and enjoyed the lakes of the Whiteshell and Nopoming. He was known for his life-long love of learning, of the law and the liberal arts, an enthusiasm shared with successive generations of young lawyers. He will be greatly missed as Grandpa Rudy.
