Katy Flosi, wife of Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force David A. Flosi, died unexpectedly Sept. 20 from medical complications, the service’s senior enlisted leader announced in a letter to the force.
Describing his wife as “a cherished soul, universally loved for her warmth, kindness, and vibrant spirit,” CMSAF Flosi wrote: “Our family is heartbroken. We will heal, and I appreciate your kindness as we do.”
According to a bio with the Air Force Aid Society, Katy Flosi was a professional ballerina from 1992-1994. The couple married in 1997. She enjoyed camping, cooking, and listening to podcasts. She is survived by her husband and their three children.
“David and I have been married for 27 years,” Katy Flosi said a year ago, at AFA’s 2024 Air, Space & Cyber Conference. “He proposed to me the night before he went into basic training, and said, “Just please don’t send me a dear John letter until I’ve graduated.’ He’s like, ‘Just wait till I finish.’ So we’ve been in this together forever, and that’s when I became a military spouse and learned that [other] military spouses are really our best resource.”
