Oh Dom. I am so sad to be writing this.
I met Dom in 2009 when I began working in Class 1 as an NQT. She was my mentor and taught me so much. She was always full of life and fun. Her family were her absolute world and it was my pleasure to get to know them, especially Francesca who was 4 or 5 at the time and would come and play in class 1 before school.
I loved spending time with Dom and we became friends, only losing touch a few years after I moved schools, for this I will always be sorry. She was an inspiration to me, I became a better teacher under her guidance but also a better person.
I will always remember her perfect present wrapping, awe inspiring displays and beautiful clothes, shoes and nails. She took great pride in looking nice all the time, her beauty shone through from inside too. A real angel sent from above.
Understanding how much God meant to her is the only comfort that can be bought from her passing. She will be with him now and forever. Our loss is His gain as they say.
My love to all her friends and family.
THANK YOU Dom, for everything. You will be remembered forever.
