Just heard of Dominic's passing. I knew Dom for 40+ years. We were on opposite sides on numerous criminal cases. Dom was a fine advocate and really fun to be around. He was a fine man and will be missed. My condolences to his family. Mike Miller

I would like to say Dominic is and was a very special person in my life! He helped our family get through some tragic events with his love for law and people! He did it for all the right reasons! I loved him and my family loved him too! What a great friend and I am so shocked and sad that he no longer will be a phone call away or a time that we run into each other! Farewell my friend and I was blessed and honored to call you my friend! I love you and will miss you my brother! Heaven awaits for our reunion as the family of GOD will all be together again in Jesus name! Your longtime friend and identical twin from Mt. Vernon, Ohio who now has lived in Dublin ( buckeye country ) for many years! I pass on my condolences to your beloved family and your friends whom I know loved you very much too!
