Dominic passed away on Tuesday, December 19th at Bear Hill Nursing Center at Wakefield after a brief illness. He was 78 years of age.

Born and raised in East Boston, he was a beloved son of the late Joseph and Josephine (Fontana) Lombardi.

A resident of East Boston for most of his life, Dominic received his early education attending Boston Schools.  He worked for the City of Boston, Parks, and Recreation Dept.  He was assigned to the Boston Commons and Piers Park and received several Mayoral Citations for Excellence in recognition for his efforts maintaining those parks.  He retired after many years of dedicated service and settled in Melrose 10 years ago.

He is fondly remembered as a pleasant gentleman with a warm smile, regarded by his friends and cronies at local Dunkin Donuts in Melrose as the "Mayor of Melrose".

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by three brothers Anthony, Joseph and Michael Lombardi and his sister Concetta Rega.  He is survived by his niece Donna Crowe and her husband James of Middleton, grandnieces Dani Crowe and their wife Karen, Christina Carmody and her husband Brian and their children Brian, Jr., and Isabella Carmody.
