He was preceded in death by his father, Jose Dominguez; mother, Celina Dominguez; father-in-law, Willie Cordova; brothers, Levi Trujillo, Floyd Dominguez, David Dominguez, and Randy Dominguez. Leroy was a beloved husband, father, brother, and friend. He will be truly missed by all those that had the privilege of having him in their lives. Leroy, Dad, Daddy, Tiger, Brother, Carnel, or Pampa – of the many names he was known by, loving, considerate, compassionate, selfless, and hardworking, were just a few of things that he was known for in life. Leroy’s most important thing in life was his family/friends and never missed out on the opportunity to enjoy laughing or spending time with those closest to him. He proudly served his country in Vietnam while in the Army and worked in the coal mines to support his family. He loved the mountains and going for “lena” was something he did every chance he got. He loved dancing, his Sparx, and all Northern New Mexico Ranchera music. Leroy was always there to lend a helping hand to those in need and not once would ever ask or except anything in return – his heart was completely filled with love and sincerity. “The world will never be the same without you!”
