Tolland DPW Keeps Up Tradition Of Paying Respects

TOLLAND, CT — Tolland Department of Public Works staffers Thursday kept up a tradition of not leaving their neighbors without a final testament.

Eleanor Rudolph recently died and her burial was scheduled for Thursday at the South Cemetery (also known as Cider Mill).

Mrs. Rudolph was 95 and a Tolland resident. She did not have any next-of-kin, family or friends to attend, Tolland Town Manager Brian Foley said.

As they have often done in these situations, Tolland DPW staff members attended the burial, bought some flowers and said a few words in her honor.
