Neil was proud and honored to stay by Kit’s bedside to the very end and is extremely grateful that our niece, Faith Bongiorno, took the time out of her extraordinary, busy schedule to be there with him, also. Such a brave and unselfish act given she endured witnessing her father, Kurt Knudsen, suffer the same fate just one year ago. We take comfort in the thought that Kit’s oldest brother, Kurt, can be there to guide him through. We imagine it to be a joyful reunion. Neil and his wife, Donna, are forever grateful for Faith’s strength and support. It was a comfort to know that Kit had loved ones by his bedside when God called him home.
