Deb, So sorry for your loss. I feel blessed to have know Len. As a neighbor, one of the best.
Len and my dad courageously battled this terrible disease at the same time. When my father passed, Len was the first to call.
In our hearts and prayers.

Not meaning to appear flippant, but here's my story: I worked in the Plant Personnel Office at the 3rd Street office of Cincinnati Bell waaaay back in 1969 (migrated worked from Indiana at age 21). :)
One of the workers in the group was a Mr. Bonomini. I remember being amazed that that NAME can be typed using JUST the right hand. SURELY you all realized it, too? :)
And then, of course, the Bononmini Bakery in Northside. :)
