To the Bonczewski family,
I was deeply saddened this week to hear about Pete's passing. He was always a good friend, and made those days on the boat just a little more bearable. I'll never forget Pete, and I look forward to seeing him again someday.

To the Bonczewski family,
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you in this difficult time. Peter was always such a delight to take care of at HUP, he always had a smile no matter how he felt that day. Kari or Dawn if you ever feel up to it please email me, I would love to hear from you. Please take care.

To the Bonczewski family,
Both my wife and I want to express our condolences on Pete's loss. I had the pleasure of knowing him through the Boy Scouts when we were younger, and he was always one to make us laugh. Having recently gone through a difficult loss ourselves, we feel your pain, and though words can sometimes seem cliche, I know that the Lord will watch over and comfort you.

God Bless,
Christopher and Heather Compton

To the Bonczewski Family, I had the honor and privilege of serving with Pete on the USCGC Dauntless during 2001. He was a GREAT shipmate, and will be missed by all. He stood the watch. His skills as a Quartermaster assured our safety at sea, time and time again. Myself and all his shipmates had many many great times with Pete on the boat and during all the port calls that took us throughout the Caribbean. He was a Great Sailor, but even a better person. I am saddened to hear of his passing....

Pete was a friend to everybody. He always knew how to light up a room. My sympathy goes out to all his family and friends. He will be missed by everyone. He was truly a wonderful person!

To All of Pete's family, I would like to express my deepest sympathy. Pete was a very big part of my life throughout high school and college. He will be greatly missed. To his parents, you raised a son that you could be very proud of. He had a good head on his shoulders and a very kind and giving heart. To Kari, I am sorry I never had the chance to meet you. I wish that you had more time to spend with Pete but I know that you are thankful for the time you did have. I did not know of Pete's...

On behalf of all of the nursing staff on Rhoads 6 @ HUP, I was deeply saddened to hear that Peter had lost his courageous battle w/leukemia. I had the pleasure of knowing Peter & Kari during Peter's many admissions to HUP. Peter could always be counted on to have a friendly smile on his face & an upbeat attitude no matter how bad he was feeling physically. He was certainly a "popular" patient on the floor among the staff & other patients. The grace & courage with which he faced his disease...

Pete, I will always remember the good times we had growing up going to Knobles, Hershey, Cooperstown. Also how could I forget all the hilarious games at my mom's house with you,Dawn and Chris. You were like a big brother to me growing up. At least I know you are not suffering anymore and you're watching down on everyone.
