Dear Mary Alice, George, Lisa and Brenda,
I am so sorry about Brian. I heard late and I apologize for not being there. It was such a shock, and truthfully still is. He was a very important part of my life for a long time and I will continue to love and miss him. Brenda, I hope you are ok. You all are in my thoughts and prayers and I send you love.
With love, Leslie

Dear Bongiorno Family,
I can't even begin to tell you how sorry I am for your loss. I remember Brian as a little boy...practicing karate in front of your house and riding his bike around our block at a frantic pace. In some ways it feels like ages ago but right now it feels like it was just yesterday. He grew up to be such a strong and wonderful man! Please know that our thoughts are with you.
With Love,
Jill

On Oct. 4, our son and brother, Brian Bongiorno, was fatally injured in an industrial accident. In the days since, our family and friends have gathered in thought and prayer to remember Brian and thank God for the gift of him in our lives.
Brian lived his life without regret or apology and deservingly earned the love and respect of many people. Brian was truly loved and will be remembered by all those who knew or thought of him, which has helped us find peace and comfort at such a difficult time.
We are sincerely thankful for the outpouring of love and support we received from so many people in so many different ways. Their graciousness and thoughtfulness extended far beyond any offering of gratitude our family could express. Everyone is also in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Lisa,
I was so sorry to hear about your brother. My dad worked with Brian at AKW and when he told me the name, I immediately asked if he was related to you. I am thinking of you and praying for your family and for Brian. God bless you.

To the Bongiorno Family,
We have never met but I am a friend of Jen's Mother and Grandmother. I want you to know that many people that you do not even know feel your loss and are thinking of you and praying for your family and Jen's. I have heard nothing but great things about Brian and he will be greatly missed. I hope that you can find strength in your faith to get you through this tragic loss.

Brenda and Family,
I would like to take the time to offer my sincere condolences to you and your family. I am sure that words cannot express the loss and hurt you all are experiencing. Brian was an extraordinary man who reflected the extreme love and strong values of the Bongiorno family. Brian is in a better place now and I am sure he is looking over all of you as he always did while on this Earth. Please stay strong and remember one day you all will once again be reunited. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless and take care!

Dear Brenda and Family, I know there are no words to comfort you right now, but please know, our thoughts and prayers are with you all! When Brian lived next door to us, it was a good thing here in the neighborhood, we enjoyed all of his stories, as he always had so many to tell, we enjoyed his laughter, we appreciated his help, as he was always willing to give. He will forever be here in our hearts! Whenever you need a "neighbor special" I will always be here for you! Love, the Neighbor Lady & Adam
