Condolences
Dear Andy,
My deepest condolences to you and your family on the passing of your dad. My late husband Walter and I have wonderful memories of Dr. Rudi, as I called him. He was a great dancer and we floated across the dance floor whenever we attended either a Schuhplattler anniversary or "A Night in Vienna" ball. The last time Dr. Rudi and I enjoyed a few steps at Vic's Celebration of Life in January 2023. I am especially grateful to Dr. Rudi for taking care of Walter when he was hospitalized in Calgary for two weeks in 1975. Whenever we visited Calgary and staying with Vic, Rudi and Helene came to share Vic's homemade breakfast and in the afternoon we went to the Hofmann's house to have a glass of wine. Dr. Rudi, always the dedicated doctor, never failed to show up with his stethoscope to take everyone's blood pressure. After such a successful and full life he is reunited with all his loved ones and friends. May his soul rest in peace and in the glory of the everlasting light.
Dr. Rudi, you are always in my heart. Servus. Anneliese
Our whole family was truly sorry to learn about the passing of Rudi Hofmann, one of the closest friends of our uncle Vic Lavica who went ahead to Rudi into eternity. When visiting Calgary, we got to know him as a real gentlemen and fervent gardener.
Uncle Vic often spoke of their deep and longstanding friendship and their excellent collaboration within the Calgary Austrian Canadian Society with deep affection. Many times, he shared photos showing Rudi and him amidst their dear friends. We are very grateful that Rudi took care of our uncle’s health for such a long time.
May Rudi’s soul rest in peace, and may you as the family find comfort in the many cherished memories he left.
So very sorry to hear of the passing of this amazing, gentle, man! Logically, we know that this is the circle of life, however it stills saddens me. Dr. Hofmann delivered my two kids 54 & 52 years ago & a couple of years ago I ran into him & his wife in Costco & he still remembered me! May his Soul R.I.P.
