Obituary of Dominick Foresto
Dominick A. Foresto of Muttontown, NY passed away on Tuesday November 23 at the age of 73. He was surrounded by his wife of 49 Years, Paula Foresto (née Panzeca) and his beloved family. Dominick was a proud father, father-in-law, and grandfather. He was a beloved father to his two children Christopher Foresto MD, Lisa Lesser, PhD and a cherished father-in-law to their spouses, Lindsy Miller Foresto MD, and Adam Lesser MD. Dominick is survived by his five loving grandchildren, Michael, Matthew, James, Emma and William. His greatest joy was spending time with his family. He is survived by his brother Joseph and predeceased by his parents Nancy and Michael Foresto. He was an uncle to numerous nieces and nephews, both biological as well as others who affectionately knew him through the years as their loving "Uncle Dom."
After graduating from Long Island University C.W. Post College, Dominick worked in his family's business Foresto's Men's Shop and Tuxedo, growing it into Long Island’s premier formalwear destination. This year Foresto will celebrate its 82nd year in business serving the community at the same location in Mineola. Dominick enjoyed sharing the special moments with all those who came into the shop. He delighted in making sure each customer was ready for their special day.
His desire to give back to the community was limitless. He was a proud supporter of Chaminade High School and NYU Winthrop Hospital. For over 25 years he dressed each graduating senior of Chaminade in a Foresto Tuxedo. He was an honored member of the Wheatley Hills Golf Club for over 45 years and a past president of the local Kiwanis Club. Dom enjoyed the many friendships and bonds he made through the years with his fellow members.
Dominick's legacy is reflected in the hearts of everyone he knew, and is continued by the love of his family. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation in Dominick’s memory to Chaminade High School where a scholarship will be established in his name.
