An Excellent Family Tribute…

“I believe that one of the greatest things that one can do in life is to honor those that came before us. What Prof. Domingue has done in these volumes is nothing short of extraordinary. He has meticulously gathered a wealth of information; from candid reflections on his immediate family to scholarly research on more obscure yet fascinating ancestors.
In genealogy books often-times you will find cold lists of names, dates and facts — useful information for researchers — but information that leads the reader to search elsewhere in order to get a picture of who these individuals are. What Dr. Domingue has done here is to vividly illustrate a fascinating family history. He uses detailed narrative, photographs and charts to not only record these people’s names… but to preserve their values, their beliefs, and their accomplishments for further generations to admire. His attention to detail really adds warmth to this work, and makes the people detailed within it come alive.
These volumes should bring great pride to both the immediate and extended family of Gerald Domingue. The knowledge that is shared in them is priceless for those that value it — for it is not only a record of the lives of great men and women who have passed on. It is a testament of a great family foundation that will continue to grow over time. It no doubt will be a treasure to descendants for many years to come.”
