Not sure what to say?

Think about my good friend almost every day. Memories that have me cracking a smile.

Dom, I just found out about your passing. If anyone should have lived to be 100 is was you. I am so blessed to have known you. You got me through some difficult times. Boston was a blast, I still don't know how you got my contacts out of my eyes. Rest in peace my Dear Friend. I am sure there is fly fishing where you are.

We all lost a fine Norwich man. He lived our Norwich values every day. He served his God, his Country, his family and his University. One could not have asked for a harder working or more supportive alumnus as he. I will miss his friendship and good council. Our thoughts are with Jackie and his family, friends and all his Norwich buddies. May he now Rest in Peace. Dom made the saying "NORWICH FOREVER" really mean something! RADM Rich Schneider, Norwich President Emeritus

Dom (aka Old Timer), it was a blessing to have known you my friend.

Rest well, sir. Well done.

Dom, we've been friends since we were small kids. I will miss our chats. Sending love to your family.
