Dominic was best man at my daughter and son-in-law's wedding, Jessica Kovell married Mike Kreller. Mike and Dominic we're best friends growing up and as adults. I met Dominic only a few times before the wedding and really loved the guy. He had a big heart as well as a big smile. And I am also sorry to hear about Julie. My heart is heavy and I am sending sincere condolences to the family. You all have been through so much. Prayers for you all and May the Lord give you comfort at this time in knowing that there is eternal Bliss in the Kingdom and that we will see our loved ones again. Rest in peace Dominic and Julie also.
