Just to add a bit to the obit -- Bo played defensive end and tight end back when the Hoyas played as a club team. The coaches were Mush Dubofsky and Scotty Glacken. Glacken stumbled over the three syllables of "Bogdanski" so he called him "Bo," which stuck. (Glacken was from Duke, explaining his problem pronouncing three syllable words.) Bo also played on the tennis team for GU.
He went through the Air Force ROTC program at Georgetown and was commissioned upon graduation. For a Florida kid, his first assignment was to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. He froze.
He met his wife, Lisa, in the Air Force. She was also an officer. Both his children were adopted, Tommy from Korea and Chedta from Thailand. Tommy has fragile-X syndrome, similar to Down's. Chedta is now an office manager in Tennessee.
Bo was an ardent Catholic through his life. He died of a rare pulmonary disease. Thanks for your prayers.

Sad to hear about Vince’s death. I lived across the hall from him on 1st Copley. Star of the football team. Very unassuming and couldn’t have been friendlier.
