Dad,

Today I morn your passing and I grieve daily in my heart. Living so far away I was not near you as the years went by. My letters to you I knew you would read my feelings and thoughts. The stories of my grand daughter Shaye Lynn and my family I could share with you and ma.

So many warm and caring thoughts are here with you today, I just want you to know you'll be thought of through the days that come and go.
Your Daughter,
Terry Lynn Casna

“As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.” -Leonardo da Vinci
I'm sorry for your family's loss. Death has a strange way of reminding us how precious life is. Keep him in your heart, and he'll always be with you.

Poem/Last wish By My Father, ALBERT P DOMINGUEZ: "To Remember Me" At a certain moment a doctor will determine my brain has ceased to function and for all intenet an purposes, My life has stopped. Do not attempt to instill artificial life into my body by the use of a machine, Let my body be taken, give my eyes to a man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby's face, or a love in a woman's eyes. Give my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless pain. Give my blood to the teenager who has been pulled from the wreck of his car, so that he might live to see his grandchildren play. Give my kidneys to the one who depends on a machine to exist from day to day. Take my bones, every muscle, and fiber in my blood and find a way to make a cripple walk. Explore every corner of my brain. Take my cells if necessary, Let them grow so that some day a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the rain against her window. Turn what is left of me and scatter my ashes to the winds to help flowers grow. If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weaknesses, and my prejudices against my fellow man. Give my soul to God, if by chance, Do it with a kind deed or a word to someone who needs you. If you do all i ask, I will Live Forever....... APD/lmk

You will remain in my heart forever,may you rest in peace. Our father Albert Porfidio Dominguez will be missed by many friends and family.
