Not sure what to say?

I will never forget working with Dominic! I thought of him as a grandpa or maybe an uncle. When I worked with him on the James band. He insisted that his son was the best dentist and that I needed to go to him when I was telling him I had some dental problems. It´s a good thing I listened to Dominic because my problems ended up being quite serious and my teeth are gorgeous now! I´m happy to have found a couple photos and hope to attach them here

Dominic was the greatest inspiration to me during my high school years. He taught me the importance of mastering the basics of saxaphone technique as the foundation to more advanced playing. He was a tremendous teacher and good friend. I always wanted to work hard to impress him. I still play today and I think of him often.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Dominic Mumolo was an inspirational teacher of our son, Ed Kraus, and we are sorry to hear of his death. Our condolences to his family.

I will miss Dominic....he was one of my favorite people on the James Band. I am forever grateful to him for convincing me to see his son, the dentist! He spoke with a great deal of pride when it came to Anthony.
