The community is grieving the heartbreaking death of Dominic Lugo, a bright and compassionate 19-year-old whose life was cut tragically short this week.
Dominic, fondly known as Dom by friends and family, passed away suddenly, leaving behind shattered hearts and unanswered questions.
Dominic was much more than a son, brother, and friend.
He was a gifted soccer player whose dedication to his team and love for the game earned him the admiration of coaches, teammates, and spectators alike.
His energy, humility, and work ethic set him apart both on and off the field. Friends remember his infectious smile, his kindness, and the unwavering support he offered to those around him.
His sudden death has sent shockwaves through the community.
Loved ones are struggling to process the unimaginable loss of a young man so full of life, dreams, and potential.

Dominic’s parents, Carlos and Evelyn Lugo, and two siblings now face not only the emotional burden of grief but also the financial challenges that come with funeral expenses and memorial arrangements.
In response, friends and supporters have launched a GoFundMe campaign to help ease the family’s financial stress during this difficult time.
The fundraiser aims to cover funeral costs, memorial services, and any unforeseen expenses that may arise as the Lugo family mourns their beloved son.
Kristin Bowen, a family friend, described Dominic as a “gifted, magnetic young person and a dedicated teammate.”
She urged the community to rally behind the Lugo family—whether through donations or simply by spreading the word about the campaign.
“No donation is too small,” Kristin emphasized.
“Even if you are unable to give financially, sharing this effort and keeping the family in your thoughts and prayers means the world.”
