Dominic Michael Stefano left this earth on January 24, 2018 at the age of 19. Dominic was born on April 7, 1998 in Columbia, Maryland to Diane and Angelo Stefano and older sister Grace.
Dominic grew up in Easton, Maryland where he played football and found his love of the Baltimore Ravens. In 2014, Dominic and his family moved to Townsend, Montana. Dominic quickly adapted to the people and town and grew to love Townsend as his home. Dominic was loved by his peers and was voted Prom King during his senior year. Dominic graduated from Broadwater High School in the Class of 2016.
After high school, Dominic gained a job working as a Detention Center Officer at the Broadwater County Sheriff’s Office in Townsend Montana. Dominic enjoyed his job and quickly became a part of their family. When he wasn’t working, Dominic loved music, everything from Motown, Country, Pop, and Rap. He was known for dancing to just about any song that was playing. Dominic loved hunting with his Uncle Mark, fishing with his buddies and riding around town in his truck. Any time he could be with his friends, he was, and he would have done anything for any one of them.
Dominic is preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Michael and Margaret Stefano as well as his paternal uncle, Michael Stefano. Dominic is survived by his parents, Diane and Angelo Stefano and his older sister, Grace Stefano.

Dominic worked on our little farm one summer after he graduated. He painted all our out buildings, helped me with
My chickens and horses. He was so proud of a hitching post he had built for us as it was perfectly straight!
We came to love him that summer as he was always happy, and we enjoyed having lunches
And talks with him. Sincere condolences to his family, Mark and Liz Wood who first introduced us to Dominic.
Keeping you all in our prayers.
Elise says
My thoughts and prayers go out to the Stefano family. “Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of beautiful memories”.
B. J. Hylton says
So deeply sorry for the loss of you beloved one. The Bible promises us a time when we will be reunited with our loved ones again in the near future. We can read this at John 5:28, 29. It says, 28 – ‘Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.” It will be a wonderful time when we are reunited with our loved ones again.
