One of Rudy’s most astonishing accomplishment was going to the Richard Petty Driving Experience in Charlotte, NC at Lowe’s Speedway and driving a NASCAR at 148 mph 2 years after his 2nd transplant. One of his very close friends who he had helped and supported through her heart transplant journey said; “Rudy has taught so many of us how to live as a transplant recipient and he taught us now how to die with dignity.” His last wish was to be able to help others in his passing and was an organ donor.
