September 25, 2022
Elliott Rudnick, 83, of Huntington, Connecticut, passed away on September 25th in Bridgeport Hospital. Elliott was born in Queens, New York to William and Celia Rudnick. He went to Newtown High School in the Elmhurst section of Queens before attending the Brooklyn College of Pharmacy. Elliott worked in Sales for both Revlon and Faberge before continued successes as a Manufacturer’s Sales Representative for several cosmetics and health and beauty aid manufacturers. After starting his family and moving to Trumbull, Connecticut in 1968, he became active in his community and involved with his young family’s activities. Later in life, he enjoyed spending time with his beloved wife, Judy, his children, grandchildren, and good friends. Fishing and tending to his tomato and house plants brought him great happiness as well. Elliott was also involved with Congregation B’nai Torah in Trumbull. Over many years as a member, he served on its ritual committee, especially enjoying his responsibilities as head usher during the High Holidays as it gave him the opportunity to socialize with many of the temple’s congregants.
Elliott is survived by his devoted and loving wife of 60 years, Judy, of Huntington, Connecticut; daughters, Cheryl Tsechrintzis, Elaina Wheaton; son, Rob Rudnick; grandchildren, Riley Tsechrintzis, Emily Tsechrintzis, William Wheaton, Celia Wheaton, Shawn Wheaton, and Max Rudnick; son-in-law, Derek Tsechrintzis; daughter-inlaw, Happy Rudnick; and his loving brother-in-law, Dr. Eric Lazar and his spouse, Susan Lazar. Elliott was predeceased by his beloved sister, Harriett Garber; and their parents, William and Celia Rudnick.
