We were childhood friends. I loved riding my bike up Saticoy Ave to the Campbell's huge white house on Telegraph. Dom, you were an amazing friend. Fun with you, Shawn, Kevin and a long time later Timothy was born .

My wife Julie & I send our love and prayers to Dom, Danny & Jeff , his brothers and his extended family members. Dom will never be forgotten and we will miss him dearly
I first met Dom when he started dating my sister Cathy in High School. Dom became my brother in law in 1969 and we became very close. Dom and Cathy moved to the ranch in Cuyama to grow alfalfa in the summer and raise cattle in the winter. I´d travel up just about every weekend to help them with plowing, planting, cutting, raking, bailing and hauling hay! On our free time we went water skiing at Buena Vista lake, horse riding or riding quads or motorcycles, exploring the hills and canyons in the area and hunting! Our children at that time, Danny and my son Timbo had a fantastic play life together filled with unique fun and farm life experiences! After a hard day of work and fun, we´d usually watch one of Cathy´s movie from her large collection of videos, that Dom kept in tack after Cathy´s passing. Dom and I were pretty close and we always maintained that friendship even when work and distance separated us! Fortunately I got to see Dom a little more after I retired and we could get together at my son´s home in Bakersfield. Dom was a hard working individual, who was very humble, liked to laugh and have fun! He liked to BBQ and of course he loved to eat ice cream after a big steak dinner! Dom and my sister Cathy were a great team together, and preferred living a rural life away from the madding crowd.
Julie and I got to visit Dom a few days before he passed to tell him we loved him! I am thankful to have known Dom and I will never forget him as long as I live. God Bless you Dom, you will be sorely missed!

Dom was like a 2nd dad to me since I was about 12. Couldn´t begin to tell you how many times I went back and forth to Cuyama with him and Cathy and of course my best friend Daniella, or being over there house every weekend. He sure put up with Daniella´s and mine shenigans. He was a great man and I´m going to miss him.

Dom and I Grew up together.He lived with us for a period of time in his young life. as a result, he was more like a brother than a cousin. he married my best friend in high school. We had many adventures together as children and adults. We love going to Vegas and state line gambling for many years. besides, being a hard-working man, he was deeply devoted to his family.I never heard him complain . Kind and thoughtful I will miss him deeply.it´s hard To imagine a world without him he left us way before his time. I love you, Dom and I will never forget you thank you for your kindness and your thoughtfulness over all these years.

All I can really say is Thank you Dom! You always greeted me with a hearty smile with a Santa like chuckle and a firm handshake. You were always attentive to our conversations, adding a meaningful presence and a concerned feedback. I guess you always treated me like family and demonstrated that whether discussing a matter of business or personal nature , your heart was always in the right place. You will be missed sir!

Dom was not only my uncle, he was my friend and parental figure for all of my childhood and life. I will forever cherish and remember the many memories made with Dom, Cathy, and Daniella for the remainder of my life. Rest in peace Dom, knowing that you will always be missed and remembered for the many things you have done for others throughout your life.
