Julian Dominguez was a man of honor and integrity who served as a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, and friend. His children knew that their father walked a path of humility with the strength of Gabriel and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. He and his wife keep the children focused. He was a bright and wonderful soul with a caring heart journeying through an ever-changing world! My sondolences to the family. He was loved and will be missed; however, his new home is magnificant.
Blessed in Christ
