Rudy Graham, a dedicated member of the Madison Fire District since 1994, was not only a firefighter and paramedic but also a mentor and EMS instructor who shaped the careers of many future paramedics. His infectious smile, and unique sense of humor brightened every shift, while his deep commitment to service left a lasting impact on our department and community. Rudy was a true cornerstone of the team, and his legacy of kindness and

dedication left a lasting mark.

Sadly, in late October, Rudy was diagnosed with stage 4 renal and spinal cancer. After undergoing major surgery and preparing for chemotherapy, he then suffered a severe stroke. As Rudy and his family face this difficult battle, we ask the community he served so selflessly to come together in support. Your support-whether through a donation or a simple message-would mean the world to Rudy and his family during their time of need.

This fundraiser has been approved by Rudy and his wife Tina.
