Memorial Vid
This is the memorial movie I made for my cousin’s service. It was and remains an emotional moab.
The video contained within it was nearly entirely shot by him, or using his digital camera. As I said at the memorial, it reflects Rudy as he lived his life: his thoughts and actions, his humor, his bravado, and, yeah, even his tenderness and his love.
He’d probably punch me for that last part. He was always trying to toughen us up; make the rest of us cousins as strong as he was.
The song is called Wake Up, by the Arcade Fire, off their beautiful and too aptly titled Funeral album.
