Dominic Joseph D'Agostino

Dominic Joseph D’Agostino was born in Syracuse, NY on June 22nd 1967 and joined his heavenly family on September 22nd, 2021. He was preceded in death by his parents, Frank D’Agostino and Stan and Janice Redmond, his brother Frank, and his sister Domenica. He leaves behind 7 brothers and sisters to mourn his passing Mary D’Agostino, Renee Carter, Jennifer Hutcheon, Camille Dransart, William Redmond Jr., Sean Redmond and Gordon Redmond. He also leaves behind 22 nieces and nephews, 15 great nieces and nephews and countless friends. Dominic’s life was characterized by a fierce love for his family, friends and the many communities he called home. Dominic was someone who could walk into a room as a stranger and leave with many friends. If you were unfortunate enough to find yourself on the opposite side of the card table with him, you would be comforted by constant laughter while he won every hand. His love of sports translated to a short career as a basketball coach as well as a sideline coach for all of his nieces and nephews. Dom loved fully, laughed easily and always sought to understand the misunderstood and protect the marginalized. He will be missed by many.

The funeral Mass will be held on October 21st at 2:00 pm, with Rosary at 1:30 p.m. at St. Francis Catholic Church, 900 H Street, Bakersfield, CA 93304. Memorial to follow.
