Special tribute from Dominic's sister, Emily

Dominic can only be described as the most kind, patient, passionate and intelligent person I have ever known. His smile and warm presence could light up even the darkest of rooms. 

Dominic was not only my brother, but the best friend I ever could have asked for, and I know many others felt the same way. He was funny, witty and the only person to have made my physically sick with laughter. He was not only a great friend, but a great son, who devoted a year of his life to help care for our mother. I was, and forever will be, in awe at how someone so young could act with such selflessness, compassion and patience. Dominic always put others before himself no matter what and he made so many lives, along with mine, immeasurably better. 

From a young age, Dominic developed a fascination in films and always dreamed of one day becoming a film director. He would spend most days thinking up films, script writing, cover designing and more. This is a dream and passion he never gave up on. 

Over the past couple of years, I had the pleasure of watching my brother grow into a handsome, tall, glowing young man. He sat his A-levels in Maths, History and Economics at Farnborough Sixth Form College, where through his hard work he achieved exceptional results. However, his curious and passionate nature meant he was fascinated by pretty much everything, from climate change and physics to the history of mankind - and every day I learnt something new from him. I could really go on forever listing all the amazing things about Dominic. He is the most special person I have ever met and I will forever be grateful for the time I had with him. The world will truly be a worse place without him.
