John R. Domohowski

John Richard Domohowski, 41, of Saugus, Massachusetts, passed away peacefully on August 25, 2025, surrounded by his loved ones after a courageous battle with brain cancer.
Born on December 10, 1983, in Malden, MA, John was the son of Diane (Marsinelli) and John Domohowski. He attended Northeast Vocational High School, where he met his future wife, Elizabeth. In 2007, they welcomed their daughter, Sabrina. Many of their happiest moments were spent on the water, boating and fishing out of Gloucester, and enjoying time together at the Saugus yacht club.
John will be remembered for his determination and strong will, qualities that often showed in his ability to tackle any electrical project, no matter how challenging or time-consuming. These same traits carried him through his illness, giving him the strength to fight for more time with his family and the joy of seeing his daughter graduate high school.
He is survived by his wife, Elizabeth, and their daughter, Sabrina; his parents, Diane and John Domohowski; and his sisters, Sarah D'Andrea and Kerri LeBlanc. He also leaves behind three nephews and a niece, all of whom will cherish his memory.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made to the National Brain Tumor Society (NBTS) – Oligodendroglioma Research Fund in support of brain cancer research.
"We hope you feel the most perfect mist of the salty sea upon your face as you steer your sturdy boat. With a cold beer in your hand and a cigarette resting between your lips, may the breeze catch your hair just right and bring you the peace you always deserved."
