Rudolph was born on November 22, 1944, in Swainsboro, Georgia where he grew up and attended Swainsboro High School. Shortly thereafter, he joined the United States Army and served honorably for four years, ending his career as a Specialist where he received several awards including Good Conduct Medal, National Defense Service Medal, and Marksman.

From there, he spent 10 years doing security for the Georgia National Fairgrounds. Rudolph loved people in general, but especially his family. A real family man, his free time was spent involved in both his children’s and grandchildren’s activities.
