It is with great sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of Dominic Bard, 54, of West Hartford, on Thursday, August 8, 2024. Dominic, a U.S. Army veteran, received a National Defense Service Medal during his service from 1988-1991, as a Bradley fighting vehicle systems mechanic. He went on to spend more than three decades working at Foxwoods, Mohegan Sun and MGM casinos.
Dominic was a man of the outdoors, finding joy in golfing, fishing, hiking and foraging. A kind, humorous, and genuine person, he formed lasting bonds with everyone he met. He was a beloved husband, father, son, and brother. Memories of Dominic will be forever cherished by his family and friends.
Dominic is survived by his wife Cathie; his children Taegan, Gared, Avery, and Caitlyn; his grandson Aiden; his parents Viviane and Alphy; his siblings Eric, Brenda and Linda and their spouses; and his many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his brother Bruno.
Services will be Friday, August 16, 2024, from 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. at the Sheehan Hilborn Breen Funeral Home, 1084 New Britain Avenue, West Hartford. An 11:00 a.m. Mass of Christian Burial will follow at St. Thomas the Apostle Church, 872 Farmington Avenue, West Hartford. Burial will be private.
