Willms, Rudolph "Rudy" (Died)

On Friday September 11th, 2020, Rudy passed away unexpectedly at age 69. Rudy immigrated to Canada from Bremen, Germany in 1952 with his parents late Wilhelm (Bill) and late Anne Marie Willms (nee Huebenthal) and brother Hans (John) and settled in Beachville. It was in Beachville that he raised his family with the late Mary Willms (nee Geris) who predeceased him in 2015. He was the proud father of Stefanie (Dave or DJ) Bloxsidge and Jordan (Bernadette) Willms and boastful grandfather of Sydney and Liam Bloxsidge. Rudy worked at Standard Tube for more than 40 years before retiring in 2008. He was a man with a big heart and the love he had for his family could never be questioned. He will be greatly missed. Friends are invited to join the family for visitation on Thursday September 17, 2020 from 2-4 pm and 6-8 pm. at the SMITH-LeROY FUNERAL HOME, 69 Wellington St. North, Woodstock (519-537-3611). If desired, memorial donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, and would be greatly appreciated. Personal condolences may be sent at www.smithleroy.com
