Everyone who'd kept in touch, and who knew Dom worked for Cantor Fitzgerald in the World Trade Center, spent all day September 11 waiting for good news, trying to persuade themselves he might've made it out. As reality sank in, the reaction was universal: "Not Dom." He was too good a guy. His laughter, his charm, his sense of fun, his humility, it all made you feel honored to be around him. Dom leaves his wife, Kelly, whom he dated since high school, and their daughters, Cara, 5, and Lauren, 2. Contributions to the Chris Colasanti Memorial Fund (a scholarship fund for Cara and Lauren) may go c/o Bart Osman '90, Lexington Partners, 660 Madison Ave., 23rd Floor, NY, NY 10021.
