Not sure what to say?

Oh dear, I just learned of his passing. He was my senior year Physics teacher at AHS, Class of 1969. An all boy class. We were "Golia's Gorillas" (based on a tv show "Garrison's Gorillas" of the time). Great guy. Made Physics interesting, even for a dummy like me. But he inspired me to continue to study various branches of Physics (Cosmology and Astronomy) even beyond college. A genuinely cool guy and awesome teacher.

I am so sorry for your loss I had no idea he was gone what a great man he will be missed our heart and prayers go out to the family with love kantzas family

RIP Mr Golia,you where one of my favorite teachers at Seymour Junior High.Anyone could tell how much you loved science.
My deepest sympathies to the Golia family

Uncle Donny will truly be missed. No matter what family function we went to I always looked to get our selfie picture. I am so honored to call him my uncle.

To the Golia family, please except my deepest sympathy at this difficult time . Mr Golia was one of my favorite teachers at Ansonia High School. My late husband and I were in his science class in 1968. He will be truly missed. May you find peace in your memories of this great man.

Mike,

My deepest condolences on the passing of your brother.

Fond remembrances of him from years ago.

Please know that you will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

My sincere sympathies to the Golia family and brother Mike. I was a member years ago at Race Brook with Dom and he was as nice as any person could be. RIP

My condolences to the Golia family on your loss. I was able to share many good times with Dom, both on the golf course and in the poker room. He loved both venues but nothing was more important to him than his family. Enjoy your memories of him, as I do, when I watched him check off an item on his bucket list at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. He did our group proud by being the only one "in the money"! Well done, Dom!

My sincere sympathy to the family.
