Henry Valentine Shields “Val/Hank” Rudd, age 78, of Parsons, passed from this life Sunday, October 1, 2017, at his home, surrounded by his family.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife, Barbara Holt Rudd, whom be married February 14, 1961, in North Beach, Maryland; and a niece, Susan Elaine Rudd.

Those left to cherish his memory are a sister, Naomi Harper, of Petersburg, Tennessee; a brother, Robert L. Rudd, and wife, Nancy, of Winchester, Tennessee; two nieces, Cornelia Chomech and Frances Gosnell; and many great-nieces and great-nephews.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to the Tucker County Senior Center.
