God bless all the family members, friends, neighbors, and "Associates" of Kris V. Bonomi, in this their time of mourning. Thinking of you today my old friend of 45+ years, Intel co-worker, father, provider, and US Navy veteran--you fought the good fight with 'Big C' with heroic efforts, courage and dignity for such a long time. And you did it your way. Now it is your time for peace, with no more pain--and you are sure to be missed by many.
I feel most fortunate to have recently gotten back there to northern Virginia to share some time and a lot of 'stories' with you. My wife and I have so many wonderful memories of both our families enjoying 'yearly good times at the beach" there in north Ocean City. That condo we purchased together at a court house auction was probably the best investment we both ever made during our lives! Combined with all the 'career' hard work, long hours, and moving around during our careers looking 'for more opportunities' we both were able to enjoy "Retirement" from the fruits of our labor from the Imperial Federal Government, no?
Finally, I also wish you a happy voyage and blessed new life with Our Lord. Rest in peace Kris, the most avid of STEELER fans--but 'HAIL TO THE REDSKINS.'

I am sorry to hear of this loss to your family. Kris was an amazing artist and good friend to all he knew. I will remember all the fond times I he would talk to the co-workers in the Pentagon office about his investment strategies ... I have to say it was over my head back then.
