Our hearts are aching. As most of you now know, we lost an incredible man, part of our family, Dom Narcisco. Dom was genuinely a special, loving person. He touched the lives of so many people with his caring soul, inspiring all to do their best. (Continued..)

Our memories are left with his love for Frankie, his family, friends, students, colleagues, and community. He taught us lessons we will never forget.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Dom’s family. Dom, we love you. We will remember and honor you always.

My family moved to Somers in the spring of 1997 when I was in the 6th grade. Rob was a rising senior and star athlete. He and his family made sure I was welcomed into this community and it immediately felt like home. Inviting me to Reis park to play basketball with the older kids
Devastated for our community, for my assistant coach and his family. A tragedy. Lost an incredible human, an impactful man, and someone who will never be forgotten.
Life is unfair sometimes. Hug the people you love.
Rest easy Coach Rob Violante.
