Mr.Lombardo was a teacher of mine when I took a night school course at Schurz High in the spring of 1976. My condolences to His family.

My sympathies to the family of Dominic Lombardo. I graduated from Lane Tech and started teaching there in 1988. I shared a classroom with Mr.Lombardo one day a week and appreciated the time he took to talk to me about how things were going as a new teacher. He gave me positive advice with a fatherly approach. I never forgot his kindness toward me. He also knew my dad, who had taught history at Senn HS, from grad school at Loyola. May his memory be eternal. Sincerely, Joanne Coorlas
