        Dominick J. Foti, 77, devoted and loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, passed away unexpectedly at St. Luke's Hospital in Newburgh on June 22, 2020. The son of Mary (Lisi) Foti and the late Joseph Foti, he was born in Cornwall, NY. Dominick married the love of his life, Rosemarie, and was richly blessed with his sons and grandchildren. Dom was employed at EI Dupont Stauffer Chemical and IBM. After retiring he worked as a Maintenance Coordinator at Planned Parenthood of Hudson Valley until the age of 75. Dom was a member of the Black Rock Fish and Game club, Bethlehem Rod and Gun Club, and the Orange Lake Fish and Gun Club. He enjoyed snowmobiling, hunting, and fishing, which carried over to all his grandchildren. He loved Sunday dinner get-togethers with his entire family, and was always amazed by his grandchildren and their achievements and successes. He will be remembered by his entire family as a loving, caring, helpful, and proud man, and will be sorely missed. Dom is survived by his loving wife of 57 years, Rosemarie Foti; his children Vincent Foti and partner Kristine Garcia, Paul Foti and his wife Agatha; grandchildren: Danielle and fiance Cory Duffy, Dominick, Alyssa and partner Khalid Myles, Vittoria, Julia, Antonio, Carl, and Christopher; great grandchildren Giovanni and Karson; brothers Frank and his wife Rexanne and Joseph and his fiance Cindy; and several nieces and nephews who were dear to his heart.
