i am Dominics great aunt Jojo. He was an amazing child. So full of life. And will be deeply missed. He loved his family. Dom was always full of smiles. And could always brighten someone's day. Even though his loss to our family is one of the hardest we have ever had to deal with. We know he is in a good place. And is watching down on us with his great grandpa and great grandma Rush. He will always be loved. And remain apart of our heart forever. So we will not be saying our goodbyes to him we will be saying until we met again as we put him to rest with the angels above.
